Whenever any dog bites a person, the owner of the said dog shall immediately notify the chief of police who shall order the dog impounded for a period of two (2) weeks. The dog shall be examined immediately after it has bitten anyone and again at the end of the two (2) week period. If at the end of two (2) weeks a veterinarian is convinced that the dog is then free from rabies, the dog shall be released from quarantine from the pound. If the dog dies in the meanwhile, its head shall be sent to the state department of health for examination for rabies. (Ord. 70-6-2, 6-1-1970)
