10-219 : Monitoring of quarantine.

In those instances where the animal is quarantined on the premises of the owner, the animal control officer shall have the authority to monitor the conditions of the quarantine and the health of the dog at irregular intervals.

If the owner is unable, or fails or refuses to properly quarantine the animal in such a manner as to protect others from contact with it, the animal control officer shall impound the animal and quarantine it at the city animal shelter at the owner's expense. (Ord. #93-5, June 1993)
