Council agrees to defer dangerous dog designation appeal

Every dog has its day … but in Centre Wellington one canine will have to wait until the new year.

An appeal of a dangerous dog designation is being deferred by council into early 2017.

The township’s bylaw for the registration, licensing and control of dogs permits the owner of a designated dangerous dog to appeal that designation and the associated restrictions to council.

Andrew Francone appeared before council on the appeal date of Dec. 12 to ask for a deferral to a later date.

The appeal hearing was deferred to Jan. 23.
