Lousville needs HELP. This is not a dog law but an animal law & a very scary one at that!

Woah! :shock:
Is someone is offended by the way your dog looks it can be impounded? Among others that is just ridiculous!

:o Sounds like some politicians have WAY too much time on their hands.
Never make someone a priority in your life when that someone treats you like an option.

Breed specific laws use the appearance and "characteristics" of the dog to determine whether the sanctions apply. In this draft, if the dog "appears" to be predominantly of the targeted breed(s), then the restrictions and penalties apply.

So, in short, if someone doesn't like how your dog looks, you could have some serious problems.

NUISANCE provisions in violation of KRS 82.710, and 411.500-570 have been added which will allow MAS to IMPOUND YOUR DOG and issue fines IF SOMEONE IS OFFENDED BY THE WAY YOUR DOG LOOKS!!!! (91.001 Definitions: Nuisance (1-7); 91.004; 91.062; 91.998, 91.999)

That's what I was referring too...

This one and many of the others are ridiculous as well! I would have lost Benjamin 50 times by now, he loves to be dirty. :|
If your dog BARKS or IS DIRTY on two separate occasions, and you are twice cited for a NUISANCE violation, YOU CAN BE PROHIBITED FROM OWNING PETS FOR 2 YEARS!!! (91.001 Definitions: Nuisance (1-7); 91.004; 91.062; 91.998B, 91.999, 91.036F)

Ummm.....April Fools..............

This has got to be a joke. If not, if I lived there I would've moved like yesterday.

Although it's not funny, I laughed at this crap:

DANGEROUS ANIMAL includes the following: mice, rats, hamsters, gerbils, hedgehogs, chinchillas, goats, rabbits, llamas, alpacas, guinea pigs, swine, raccoons, squirrels, opossums, deer and coyotes, and MAY NOT BE KEPT AT ALL!!!


How in the hell do you figure a goat & a pig are as dangerous as a coyote??

And for the dirty code, well, they should come see my whole household full of dogs. Hell, lately I've been going 2 days without showering (hush...I've got a newborn here :P )
