Rockingham mulls state's first pet neutering ordinance

Monday, August 27
ROCKINGHAM -- The town is considering a new ordinance that would 
require pet owners to spay or neuter their cats and dogs.

The Selectboard still has a lot of homework to do before adopting the 
new rule, but if it is signed, Rockingham would be the first town in 
Vermont to have a pet sterilization law on its books.

At the Selectboard meeting Tuesday, the board authorized Municipal 
Manager John Schempf to investigate the plan.

"I think it's a good idea," Bellows Falls Trustee Stefan Golec said 
after a group of area animal advocates made their pitch to the joint 
Rockingham-Bellows Falls board.

Donna Allen, director of The Animal Rescue And Protection Society, or 
TARPS, said her volunteer organization is having a hard time keeping up 
with number of cats and dogs that are left to roam the greater 
Rockingham area.

"There are too many feral colonies out there," Allen told the board 
before asking them to consider the spay-neuter ordinance.
