§ 3-4 DISEASED ANIMALS; INJURED OR SICK ANIMALS.
   1.   Every person owning or having any animal under his or her charge within the city, which he or she knows or suspects to be sick or injured, shall isolate the animal from other animals and shall obtain treatment for such animal by a licensed veterinarian with 24 hours.
   2.   Any animal which comes into possession of the city at the animal shelter which is injured or sick shall be humanely euthanized by trained personnel without waiting for the expiration of the period in which such animal may be reclaimed by its owner, or before the end of the period in which the animal may be place for adoption; provided, however, that before such sick or injured animal is euthanized, the Animal Control Officer shall contact the owner, if known, of such animal to determine the disposition of such animal. If the owner indicates that the animal will be reclaimed but fails to reclaim the animal within 24 hours of such notification, or if the owner of such animal is not known, the sick or injured animal shall be euthanized by trained personnel. The Animal Control Officer shall keep a record of such animal, to include breed and sex of the animal, when the animal came into possession of the city, the type of injury or sickness of such animals, the date the animal was destroyed and any other information relevant to the health, condition and description of the animal.
