Dangerous/Nuisance Dog Hearing

• This was an issue of a large dog attacking a small dog near the corner of Bray Road and Main Street.
• The aggrieved party seemed amenable to fencing measures already being taken by the dog owner to ensure the dog is contained, but wants the incident to remain on the record in case there is another one involving the dog.  The dog control officer reported the dog to be well behaved during his visit to the owner's home.
• Robyn will seek legal advice on possible resolution and will announce finding next meeting.
