COMMENTS:
The
New Jersey Legislature is considering a bill
that would effectively overturn its current
law that prevents cities from imposing restrictions
on specific breeds of dogs.
If
enacted, the bill will allow cities to require
owners to
1.
buy a special annual 'pit bull' license of
at least $150 and a maximum of $700;
2. prove that the dog is not a pit bull if
questions of identity arise;
3. build a special pen with six foot sides
and a top to confine the dog outdoors;
4. purchase liability insurance;
5. accept monthly inspection of their property;
6. muzzle the dog and keep it on a three-foot
lead or tether when off the owner's property;
and
7. notify authorities if the dog is running
loose, attacks a person or seriously injures
or kills another animal (except poultry).
The
bill has passed committee and has been sent
to the full Assembly for a vote. It can be seen
at:

A letter
has been sent from NAIA to the Speaker of the
NJ Assembly concerning this proposed legislation.
