Beginning Friday, March 10, employees of the village are authorized to act as dog catchers. An advertisement concerning the move ap­ pears in this issue. The employees will be instructed to use part of their regular hours to patrol and pick up dogs which are running at large and tran­ sport these animals to the Humane Society in London. Council was prompted to take this action by a petition signed by 43 residents of the Wilberforce subdivision and similar complaints from the Langford Drive area. Reeve Ivan Hearn told fellow council members, “During the past two months we have asked, the co­ operation of all residents in controlling the dog situation, but cumplaints continue to come in. Councillor Harry Wraith’s comment was, “In the past we have been nice about dog control. We will never win out against the dogs unless we take more draastic ac­ tion.” Councillor Larry Hotson added, “We have to hire a dog catcher. The situation is getting completely out of hand.” Norm Steeper another member of council said he saw six dogs running at large Tuesday afternoon between Main street and Concession 4. He added, “Last year we paid the Humane Society $1,000 and it didn’t solve any of the problems.” Any persons charged under the dog bylaw are liable of fines of $15 for the first offence to $50 for a third time in addition to costs which include a $50 charge by the Humane Society and costs of the local animal control officers and tran­ sportation to London.
