Hi Matt,
You're welcome.
The below was just an example and a starting point for a by law. We can defiantly make changes to this to include the muzzling and removal of size and breeds.
Is there anything else anyone can think of that needs to be excluded or included?
Should you have any queries regarding the above, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Have a nice day,
Pia Cunningham

Hi Pia,
Thanks for the quick reply. I would not support your bylaw As it dose not include the following features.
Dogs must be muzzled at all times when on common property.
Also listing the excluded dogs is a bad option. Through breading irresponsible dog owners are slightly changing the genome of dogs to make them just different enough for example not to be Pit Bull. Council is facing this all the time. By adopting the council definitions we include all past and future breeds of dogs that could be dangerous. Let's let the council do the research on this that way if another dangerous dog breed pops up we dont need an GM to fix the bylaw. I believe "any other outcross" is ambiguous.
I dont believe weight should be considered. For example a stapheshire terrier could easily be below 15kg and can be an extremely dangerous dog. Where as an old fat Labrador could be 35kg and totally harmless. We also get into the situation where what if a dog starts off at 14kg and puts on some weight at the end of it's life. Do we tell the owner sorry you are now in breach of the bylaw. A weight limit is hard to enforce and i argue futile given some of the most dangerous can be <15kg
Matt.

Hi Pia el all,
Some of you may be aware that Di from 602 has been calling people requesting the EC submit a bylaw at the next GM that allows dogs to be allowed in 200 William Street.
I know some of you will have have passionate views about this bylaw as will the wider owners. If such a Bylaw was up for consideration I would like to discuss the ground rules for such a law. Di has suggested that the law be made that pets would be allowed subject to permission by the owners corp.
I would vote in favor at an AGM for allowing dogs in the building providing the bylaw ad the following requirements. My requirements are safety relayed. As I have a small child and there are others in the building with children. I believe Safety is paramount.
Pet's would be allowed in 200 William as approved by the owners corporation.
The owners corporation could not approve Dogs that have been deemed by any council to be A Dangerous Dog, Guard Dog, Menacing Dog or a Restricted breed. (An American Pit Bull for example)
Dogs must be restrained at all times by a lead and have fitted a muzzle at all times while on common property.
I have a good understanding of dogs and am a bit of a dog lover myself and have had dogs until I moved into an apartment. These requirements are not overly restrictive but protect innocents from anyone that would recklessly use a dog to frighten or intimidate others or just negligently select a dog that was inappropriate for an apartment.
Providing these requirements were met I would be in favor of a proposing such a bylaw.
It would be horrifying to be stuck in a lift with an American Pitbull and and your child. What are your thoughts.
Matt.
