Remember how Sheriff Jon Wilson was telling me how the definitions for a kennel should be the same?
-----------------------------------------------------------
The DOG LAW OF 1919, Act 339 of 1919 defines a Kennel as
287.261 Short title; definitions.
Sec. 1.
(d) “Kennel” means any establishment wherein or whereon dogs are kept for the purpose of breeding, sale, or sporting purposes.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Further The Dog Law of 1919 states under section 10 in part:
--------------------------------------------------------------
287.270 “Kennel” defined; kennel license; fee; tags; certificate; rules; inspection; exception. [M.S.A. 12.520 ]
Sec. 10.

For the purposes of this act, a kennel shall be construed as an establishment wherein or whereon 3 or more dogs are confined and kept for sale, boarding, breeding or training purposes, for remuneration, and a kennel facility shall be so constructed as to prevent the public or stray dogs from obtaining entrance thereto and gaining contact with dogs lodged in the kennel.

There is more to section 10, but for now we are only looking at the definition.

Does that look the same as what they are proposing?
-------------------------------------------------------------
Shiawassee County Animal Control Ordinance proposed new definition:
Article II Definitions (1) KENNEL to read:
(1) KENNEL A kennel shall be construed as an establishment wherein or whereon five (5) or more dogs are confined and kept for sale, boarding, breeding or training purposes.

I don’t think so……they left some parts out
and I think I have run out of legs for them to pee on.
That “contravenes” State of Michigan Law, which allows for a kennel of 3 dogs, includes dogs kept for sporting purposes and also includes "for remuneration".
There is also mention of dogs over 6 months of age. I will cover Section 10 more later.
This may not seem like a big deal, but it is.

If you own more than 5 dogs and train them, you are subject to these county kennel ordinances?
That doesn't seem so bad? Well, even I have the same objection as the veterinarians.
More on that later.
They want to fill up the shelters with more untrained dogs
(90% of shelter dogs are there for lack of training).
What they are proposing is more violation of state law, at the very least.
“They” think “they” can write any ordinance “they” want,
“They” think “they” can write any ordinance “they” want,
provided it is more strict than state law. ...
That isn’t what the law says.
