   A.   It is unlawful for any person owning, keeping, harboring or having in his or her care or custody any dog or other animal, to cause, or permit to be made or caused by such dog or other animal, barking or making of any noises or other sounds, so as to annoy and become offensive to resident(s) in the vicinity in which the dog or other animal is kept thereby disturbing the peace of the neighborhood or causing excessive discomfort to any reasonable person(s) of normal sensitivity residing in the area, unless such noise or sound is made by an official police dog or fire dog while on duty.
   B.   If, in violation of the provisions of subsection A, any dog or other animal persistently emits any noise or sound in such a manner as to annoy and become offensive to resident(s) in the vicinity in which the dog or other animal is kept, the Animal Control Division may notify the owner of the dog or other animal, by issuing a written warning notice advising the owner of a possible public nuisance. If, within a period of seven days after the issuance of such notice, the person owning, keeping, harboring, or having in his care or custody said dog or other animal, has not abated the nuisance, such person shall be liable to enforcement of the provisions of this Title.
   C.   It is unlawful for any person, after being informed in writing pursuant to the provisions of subsection B that his or her dog or other animal may be declared a public nuisance, to fail, refuse or neglect to take whatever steps or use whatever means are necessary to assure that such dog or other animal does not again disturb residents in the vicinity in which the dog or other animal is kept.
