Dog Ordinance Debated

By EMILY HOLDEN Special to The Advocate Published: May 26, 2010

NEW ROADS â?? Pointe Coupee Parish police jurors on Tuesday night  
rehashed a proposed animal-control ordinance that would place greater  
restrictions on owners of large and potentially dangerous dog breeds  
and authorized the sale of a park to help fund a chemical spill alert  
program.

Under an Animal Control Committee proposal, German shepherds, Doberman  
pinschers, Rottweilers, boxers, Akitas, chow chows and pit bulls would  
be subject to the ordinance.

The Police Jury decided to ask New Roads to adopt a similar animal- 
control ordinance because the proposed parish ordinance would not  
supersede city, town and village laws.

During public comments, one parish resident urged the jury to speed  
passage of the ordinance although she had been attacked by Labrador  
retrievers, a breed that would not be subject to the new restrictions.

A handful of parish residents complained that dogs of any breed are  
capable of aggression.

â??When a dog is dangerous, itâ??s because the owner is not properly  
taking care of the dog,â?? said Elizabeth Guidry, a dog trainer.

Guidry, who brought a pit bull with her to the meeting, added, â??This  
dog is supposedly potential dangerous or vicious, and he plays with my  
3-year-old niece all the time.â??

Response from the list:
Several of us here in Lousiana spoke directly with the Point Coupee  
Police Jury and we were told that this was TABLED, that it would not  
be discussed at last night's meeting! I AM SO SO ANGRY right now  
because we would have driven all the way out there to represent our  
breeds.
