(A) Notwithstanding any other provision of this subchapter, any animal impounded which is badly wounded or diseased (not a rabies suspect) and has no identification shall be destroyed immediately in a humane manner.
(B) If the animal has identification, the Animal Control Program shall attempt to notify the owner before disposing of such, but if the owner cannot be reached readily, and the animal is suffering, the Animal Control Program may destroy the animal at its discretion in a humane manner.
