Henry County citizens will no longer be allowed to chain their dogs or tie them up in one spot. In response to a number of complaints from the public, the Henry County Board of Commissioners voted at its Sept. 8 regular meeting to approve an amendment to its animal control ordinance regarding the prohibition of tethering animals.
It had been brought to the board’s attention that the ordinance previously did not address this issue at all, and the change will allow animal control officers to issue citations to violators. The vote to approve the measure was unanimous. Information: henrycounty-ga.com.
