PART THREE: Very Odd PET LAWS
Get a Room
Ventura County, CA
Cats and dogs are not allowed to mate without a permit. GETTING THEM TO COME IN AND GET A PERMIT IS THE DIFFICULTY: THEY’RE SO SPONTANEOUS.
California
Animals must not be allowed to mate publicly within 500 yards of a tavern, school, or place of worship. OR PEOPLE WILL GET IDEAS.
New Castle, DE
Couples are not allowed to make out, or even hold hands, while walking a dog on a leash. IT JUST EMBARRASSES THE DOG.
Law Enforcement
Palding, OH
A police officer may bite a dog to quiet him. WON’T THAT JUST MAKE THE DOG NOISIER?
Denver, CO
The dogcatcher must notify dogs of impounding by posting, for three consecutive days, a notice on a tree in the city park and along a public road running through said park.
Houston, TX
You must submit to psychoanalysis before being considered for the job of dogcatcher. OR LAWMAKER!!
