Anti Tethering Update

On Wednesday, March 4, 2009, the Fulton County Board of Commissioners Voted unanimously in support of a resolution to ban the tethering of dogs in Fulton County.  The resolution was sponsored by Commissioner Robb Pitts, District 2, At-Large.
      
The resolution makes it unlawful to restrain or anchor a dog by means of a tether, but allows for a temporary tethering while the dog is attended by its owner or custodian.  This resolution and code amendment will become effective September 4, 2009, allowing a six-month period to educate the public about the change.  According to Commissioner Pitts, "This will make our community better and safer for its people and pets."
