(A) Should any owner elect not to pay the charges assessed against the animal, it becomes the property of the county by forfeit, and the animal may then be offered for adoption to any person who, in the judgment of the Warden, would be capable of caring for the animal in a proper and humane manner and who will pay the total fees which have accrued on its behalf.
(B) Animal Control Officers are not responsible for picking up animals that are unwanted by their owners. Owners wishing to surrender their animals will be responsible for bringing the animals to the shelter.
