Hays commission weighs 'dangerous' label, but no outright ban, for pit bulls By Associated Press
4:01 AM CST, November 9, 2009
HAYS, Kan. (AP) — City commissioners in Hays could vote this week on strict new rules for pit bull owners.
Pit bulls would not be banned in the northwest Kansas community.
But a proposed ordinance would declare the dogs to be "dangerous" — a designation that would trigger several requirements.
Owners would have to keep any pit bulls confined securely, obtain insurance and provide identification microchips. They would also have to pay a registration fee of $50 a year, and keep the dogs muzzled and leashed if they're out in public.
The commission is expected to take up the proposal at its meeting Thursday night.
