He will be out picking up dogs if necessary. "We asked him to use common sense as much as possi- ble," Mr. Graham told council. Upon capturing a dog, Mr. Roth will try to locate the owner if the dog is tagged. If not, the dog will be taken to the South Huron Veterinary Clinic in Zurich. The owner will then have to pay $25 to the village in order to have the dog released. "Hopefully, it will work out satisfactori- ly," said Mr. Graham.
