In the event that any dog which has been found vicious in accordance with § 91.17 commits any further attack without warrantable cause, the dog shall be deemed to pose an undue public nuisance and hazard to the public safety and welfare, and shall be subject to summary destruction. However, if the Dog Warden deems that the dog may be safely captured by ordinary means, he or she shall impound and keep the dog confined for not less than 72 hours before destroying the dog, and shall inform the owner or keeper as recorded pursuant to § 91.17 that he or she may file an appeal with the City Council prior to the end of the 72-hour period, and if an appeal is so filed the dog shall be kept impounded pending the City Council’s decision. Destruction of a dog impounded under this section may also be delayed by order of the County Health Officer.
