Thirty pounds update
A while back I wrote about an ordinance that would classify all dogs over 30 pounds as potentially dangerous, Robert Douglas reports that common sense has prevailed:
[The ordinance] defines a potentially dangerous dog as one that, when unprovoked, bites, chases or threatens a person or domestic animal, or is known to have bitten a person or domestic animal.
While I take a slight issue with the unprovoked inclusion (after all, a poodle jumping on a mastiff is provoking but controllable), it’s a positive step.
