JUNCTION CITY — Junction City Police Chief Merle Baldwin gave the City  
Council an idea to sink its teeth into at Tuesday's meeting — a  
possible vicious dog ordinance.
Baldwin explained several residents have asked for the city to  
consider such a measure, which could issue harsher punishments to dogs  
that attack and/or ban residents from owning certain canine breeds. He  
and Councilman Lloyd Bowling agreed to study the issue and bring their  
findings before the council at a later date.
"We've had our fair share this summer of dog complaints, but that's  
any summer," Baldwin said. "People come to me and speak, and I tell  
them I will broadcast it to the City Council, and it's up to you guys."
This summer, between five to 10 residents have called about  
threatening dogs and a possible vicious dog ordinance, which could  
prevent ownership of certain breeds, often including pit bulls,  
Rottweilers and German shepherds, he said.
No canines have caused major problems this year, but Baldwin said  
Boyle County's animal control division has had to put down  
uncontrollable, threatening dogs in previous years.
