Quenemo seeks county dog pound amid dog overpopulation
Mayor Bill Ragan says Quenemo has about 1,000 dogs for 413 residents and urges Osage County to build a countywide pound. Kansas law requires impounding for three days before disposition, but city lacks enforcement funds, a dog catcher, or a pound. Dogs have bit people, form packs, and scare residents. Ragan asks neighboring counties about a shared facility.
