She was behaving like she was terribly overworked, so maybe I should frame any gripes to the city with that in mind. Don't overwork your officers because it makes them do lousy work.
I don't have a complete list of Level II restrictions, but I know these things are part of it:
* Nothing more than 6 foot leash
* No one under 18 can walk the dog
* Can't go to dog parks
* Must be confined in "5-walled" enclosures, meaning it can't be locked in a backyard where it can escape. It has to be inside or in a pen that has a roof.
* Must be microchipped.
* Periodic visits from animal control.
* Can apply to have the restrictions removed after 1 year.
I found out a few more things in the report: He was fined $150 each for having no license or no rabies. He also got argumentative and refused to sign the Level II notice. We'll see if he agrees to a hearing. He said I told him not to call the cops, and he left because he assumed I was admitting that it was my fault. Unbelievable. |
Well I am not sure she deserves an apology. Over worked I understand; however, just not responding to you I don't understand. There is no excuse for that. I am a teacher. I am overworked too but I can't ignore parent emails. I feel she is in the same situation and at least owed you a response. So many of us could say we are over worked in our jobs. I think if she is respectful, and you are happy with the outcome, then just stopping at her supervisor is justifiable.
Well at least he will have sone accountability with the level II. Because he sure doesn't sound like a responsible pet owner. If he agrees to the hearing, you both go? What if he doesn't agree to a hearing? Sounds like he is blaming you for everything and is going to be difficult. Sounds like he is a real winner. I keep saying this a lot lately, people completely amaze me with their ignorance.
