§ 90.19 IMPOUNDED ANIMALS; TIME PERIOD FOR RETAINING ANIMALS IN CUSTODY.
   An impounded domestic animal shall be kept by the Town Marshal or by a pound into whose custody it is delivered for at least five days. However, if the animal is a dog and the only reason for its impoundment was failure to have a township dog tax tag, the dog shall be kept for at least 20 days. After the applicable time period has expired, the Marshal or pound may humanely destroy or otherwise lawfully dispose of the animal unless such disposal is enjoyed by a court, the County Health Officer or the state veterinarian.
