What might happen to your dog if it were picked up by the pound?
If the legitimate pet owners do not come forward, the animal will be considered “abandoned” and turned over to the pound.
If the pound does not comply with the precise processes outlined in the legislation, it has the authority to either euthanize the animal or make arrangements for its adoption, released to a rescue organization, or placed in a shelter.
What type of repercussions will there be as a result?
The cost you are required to pay to get your pet from the pound differs from one unit of local government to the next. The fee may increase based on the period that your dog is held at the pound, in addition to the likelihood that it has a microchip already implanted in its body. For example, if a puppy is microchipped and freed from the pound on the first day, the fee to get it out of the pound while it is in the care of most US cities is $40. The price will be increased by about $30 if your dog does not have a chip or is not carrying an ID tag. In addition, you will be charged an extra $15 for each day your dog is detained in impound (as impound fees). That comes to a total cost of less than $85 for only one day’s worth of pounding.
If your pup goes missing, conducting a quick search on Google can help you calculate the expenses associated with discovering and retrieving your pet if it is lost. In addition, you may contact your local government; if you do so, they will be more than happy to assist you and answer any questions you might have.
