Any animal that bites a person shall be quarantined for ten (10) days if ordered by the animal control officer. At the discretion of the animal control officer the quarantine may be on the premises of the owner. If the animal control officer requires other confinement the owner shall, at his or her own expense, surrender the animal for the quarantine period to the animal shelter or shall place the animal in a veterinary hospital. Any animal that bites a person or other animal, without provocation, shall be securely confined thereafter in a fenced enclosure from which the animal cannot escape and which is not accessible to the public, except that the animal may be taken off of the owner's premises if securely controlled according to the provisions of this chapter. The animal control officer shall maintain a record of every animal that bites a person without provocation. (Ord. 98-14 §1, 1998)
