[Dailydrool] New Barking Ordinance in Gwinnett Ga

[GADirtRoadBlues at aol.com]

The county is proposing cracking down on pet owners with dogs that bark in  
Gwinnett County Ga.  Under the new restrictions owners will be cited if  their 
dogs bark for more then fifteen minutes continuously or five times for  thirty 
seconds during any thirty minute interval.  Barking needs only be  heard by 
anyone living near your house.  
 
Anyone with three hounds would face citations if all three barked twice for  
thirty seconds during any more then fifteen minute period.  Penalties are  up 
to $1,000 for each offense (number of dogs), six months jail/probation and  
the court could order the dogs to be removed from the property.
 
The law is also be changed to eliminate allowing dogs to bark at intruders  
to only allowing barking when for people who are trespassing.  Anyone who  owns 
a breed that barks, howls or hates squirrels faces what amounts to a breed  
specific ban on barking.
