If an animal control officer or Health Officer suspects an animal has rabies, the officer may impound such animal for examination by a veterinarian. For purposes of this section an animal will be suspected of having rabies whenever it bites another animal or person. If the animal is afflicted with rabies, it shall be confined for such time or disposed of as the animal control officer directs. Any confinement, quarantine or disposal pursuant to this section will be at the owner's expense. (Ord. 433, 1-26-2010, eff. 3-1-2010)
