obie is correct. there is a law, but no one will enforce it. we are lucky in our neighborhood is a guy with 6 dogs in cages and on short chains. he doesnt live here, he lives 30 miles away. his dogs bark 24/7. humane society says police, police say humane society. once after 11 neighbors joined together and complained, the police did come out. looked around and said "nobody lives here" duhhhhhh yep. what you wan' us to do??? they said there is no law that says you have to live at the same address as your dogs. about 4 years ago someone got irate, slaughtered the dogs and hung them on the fence. it was horrid. next week a new batch was stationed around and a bigger chain on the gate. next came the pigs. i hate pig slaughter day, when the guy comes out and kills the pigs. the noise just turns my stomach... now mind you, these are 8000 sq ft lots, not acres, not woods.. but this is a "local" boy and we are in year 6 since he came here.
