\nIf Mr. Paulk was a “normal citizen” he would know if you call the
\nsheriff\u2019s department for a animal problem he would know they call animal
\ncontrol! And it is up to the animal officer if they want to give the dog
\nback to the owner… Officers have done it many times. It is under the
\ndiscretion of the animal control officer. Poor Ashley should know what
\n
\nthe ordinance<\/a> says I mean he was the sheriff for many years as he has
\nindicated many times and since he is the County Chairman now one would
\nthink he would know what the orinance says. This poor guy was given wrong
\ninformation by the County Chairman on how to fix the problem… perhaps if
\nthe man caught the dog and brought it to the shelter he would be better
\noff. The owner would have to show proof of rabies vaccination and pay
\nimpound fees. $25 impound fee, $12 for a voucher if the dog does not
\nhave proof of current rabies vaccination. The prices are not much but it
\nis incontinent. If it is not sterilized (spay or neutered) it doubles
\non each impound… fees can rack up pretty fast $25, $50, $100 and so
\non. The sheriff\u2019s office is not going to handle owner involved cases,
\nif the dog was returned to the owner it was not a stray. Sorry Ashley
\nPaulk you\u2019re so wrong on this one!\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
