I've had 4 complaints in the last 4 months about my dog. First for barking (she doesn't bark in the kennel), the animal control officer said he waited for an hour and never heard one bark. The next was for her being outside all day, the animal control officer came out and said her living conditions were above and beyond what is required. 3rd time was for being under feed, once again the officer came out and said she was very healthy in fact he said she looks like she is a little over feed(he used to have a coon dog growing up back east) and that I need to hunt her more haha. By the fourth complaint he just called laughing saying the new complaint is the big cut on her lip from being abused. He was laughing cause he said I must have taken her hunting (she got swiped by a trapped bobcat).
Funny when a bunch of city people with lap dogs think we don't know how to treat a dog haha.
I would tell him write the ticket knowing you'll be found not guilty. When it goes to trial you have the right to face your accuser so the person complaining has to take the stand against you. Or just start knocking on doors asking until you find someone that won't look you in the eye.
At least you get the animal control officer. I wish they had called my town animal control officer. he would have laughed right at them. Instead they called the SPCA knowing it was an anti hunting organization.
