transcript of the testimony given
at the fist trial by Dr.. Raithby..
'B'efore making This
""$Utntnation, Judge Hetherington
told the court he had spent the
entire noanhour tryink, to find
an alternative solution for the
problem, -He fpund that the dog%
under some circumstances,
behaved norntaly and well while
under other circumstances,
'--particttlArly-par3•tarrces•' }nv+vpving~
children, could not be depended
upon to remain J quiet and
rtonaggressive.
The -Crown Attorney, William
Cochrane reminded the Judge
that the% breed may have
something to do with Rex's
disposition and that the animal
had the potential of "being' a
nuisance or injuring someone."
Cochrane, agreed the dog was
a "potential danger; a potential
killer, „in the environment in
which he has been living" while
in an "adult situation" and
under the "proper
environment",'the dog was a
normal pet.
The Crown Attorney also
suggested that if there was an
alternative to putting the dog to
death, he wouldbe willing to
I listen.
to state the -Humane Society's
willingness. to take full
responsibility for the dog, Rex.
That witness was Herbert
Hyntley.
Huntley told,,the-eeur-t-•Shat in
his position as kennelmaster, he
was in charge of,, placing large
dogs with families. He said that
in his experieneer-it•,-•has-been
wise to place large dogs in the
country and added that the only
time 'such dogs •were • plated "in
the city, is when they were to be
used as watchdogs.
Hentley promised that the
environment into which he•
would place the Budny do ,r'"
would. be carefully investigated
He indicated a country family
where there are teenage children
could be the solution.- „
He said the Humane Society
would•. accept"ful"1'"rsonsibility
for. placing Rex in a new home
and that no further expense
would be charged to anyone -
involved in this case after that
responsibility was given to' the '
Humane Society.
Judge Hetherington said he
could perceive that the problem
which had arisen with Rex "may
We' resolved without the
destruction of the dog" - which
he ° described as "slightly
MacEwan I;Jgener, attorney . i ni pulsive" and "at times
acting on behalf of the Budny dangerous." The .Judge said he
family, said there had been ..0 n de r s t o o d t h e deep
opportunities for the Humane attachments 'some pet owners'
Society to "adopt" the &VOW `'felt for their dogs.
but that this had been
impossible as long ass the
execution order existed.
"The whole reason for this
-.appeal is to do something about ,
that otder," said Egener.
• "Children come first anti 'the
:dog comes -next," observed
Judge Hetherington. "If there. is „
any contest about this, the dog'
would of course,•lose.".
'Egenersuggeuted "that -one
witness be recalled to the stand
After issuing his final edict
for the dog to be made the full
responsibility of the Humane
Society, Judge Hetherington
made -it clear- the dog -was not.to
noge:backintothe-possession :ot
the BUCdny family.
Tly dog's former oW ner, Kaz
Budny, expressed -satisfaction
with the ruling and said he
didn't want to know where the
dog Was placed: -
Burning leaves
Continued from Page 1
leaves'•are picked" up by town -
employees who "fork" them
onto trucks and take them away.
Caranci says that the bulk of
complains about burning leaves
in the fall' come ,from smaller
municipalities' where councils
have not taken effective steps, to
eliminate the problem.
If there are Goderich
residents who wish to complain
about . leaves being burned in
their neighborhood, they can
give the details directly to the
Air Management Branch of the
provincial government's Energy
and Resources' lvfanagem.ent
Department in Kitchener. The

who would come to Goderich
promptly to investigate the
complaint: The name ' of.... -,the
person who made -the complaint.
would be • kept in strictest
confidence; Caranci says.
• If upon. investigation it was
determined by the inspector that
the fire was indeed a hazard or a
•
'serious- nuisance, the matter
would be reported to' the
department's legal personnel
Who could then take -action
against the. person ' or persons
responsibleq ,for the fire.
