Pit Bull Owner Fined In Ottawa Court Case
Jason Burgoon, 20, Locust, was fined 25 for dog running at large and 50 for harboring a vicious dog after a July 16 incident in which his pit bull blocked neighbors from leaving their car. He also owes 100 from a prior dog ticket, with a 50 bond set for future compliance. If the dog runs loose again, total costs could reach 225. The report notes prior pit bull incidents in Ottawa over 10 years and underscores ongoing deliberations on stricter vicious dog ordinances.
