Pet Law Changes in Manhattan


Watch out Manhattan! Animal control ordinance laws are being updated from their 1928 versions.


What are the proposed revisions:

- Every residence is only allowed 4 pets. But if you currently have more, you can keep them, but can not replace them.
-No livestock, wild, undomesticated or exotic animals
-Dog walkers must carry bags (for poo!) and must immediately dispose of the "said poo."
-Required $1 license fee and inoculations
-Citations will be given if debris or odors on their own property become a health hazard. (That would take a lot of poo!)
-Dogs caught running at large a second time must be spayed or neutered within 30 days, to make them less aggressive.
