Ms. Janssen stated she wanted to make a correction that on July 11t the dogs were not registered and they were still not registered when she called the Town Clerk's office on August 30th and the dogs were still not registered. She also called the Zoning Department and there was not a registered kennel on file for 756 Ware Street. Ms. Sharon Turk of 770 Ware Street came forward and stated that she is an abutter. She stated that her statements are accurate, but wanted to make a correction to the July 13th statement in the second paragraph. She said the statement that reads that James came out of the shed should say that Frank came out of the shed and the last sentence it should be Frank and not James. She also added that paragraph four it should be Frank and not James. Mr. DeRensis asked for Ms. Turks statements to be entered into the record as amended and Mr. Trowbridge agreed. Mr. DeRensis then asked for Detective Walsh to come forward and asked him if he was involved with the situation of Ms. Shawna Burke. Detective Walsh stated that Ms, Burke came to the Police Department because she wanted to file a report because she left her dog in the care of Ms. Quinn for a week and the dog had passed away while in her care, Officer Andrew Kelly was the officer who took the initial reporting from Ms. Burke but he interviewed Ms. Burke as part of the investigation. Ms. Quinn stated that she took the two Pomeranian dogs belonging to Ms. Burke and one of her dogs Nahla outside along with her young child. Ms. Quinn stated that a coyote came out of the woods and took one of the dogs into the woods and several hours later she found the dog 100 feet away in the swap of the woods. Ms. Burke was given back both dogs but one was dead and wrapped in a blanket. Mr. DeRensis asked if the dead dog had bite marks and Detective Walsh stated there were bite marks. Mr. DeRensis asked if coyotes eat their prey and Detective Walsh responded that in his experience and knowledge a coyote would take the animal to eat and you would never see it again. Mr. DeRensis asked if the dead dog was eaten and Detective Walsh responded that it was not. Mr. Rhein stated that there were so many instances and at what point would the Select Board have a hearing. Officer Collins stated that the Select Board could have a hearing after just one incident however he did not report it because at first the dog owners were showing intent to fix the pen but then the calls became more frequent and the dogs began to show aggression. Mr. Rhein then asked what would the Town or Police Department for the violation of operating a kennel without a kennel license. Officer Collins responded that until the police have reports and proof of it then he would be able to fine them and give a bylaw citation. Mr. Rhein then asked why the dog owner was not present and Officer Collins stated that she may have moved out of Mansfield with one of the dogs. Mr. DeRensis stated that there is a complaint before Select Board Meeting Minutes December 7, 2022 the Board and even if the person may have left Town the Board must decide on what has happened in the past and not the future. Furthermore, he added that the Board has to first decide to either dismiss the complaint, declare the animal's dangerous animals or nuisance animals. Mr. Trowbridge stated that this is upsetting and putting people at risk. He noted that it is also using up lots of Town resources dealing with this and there appears to be a blatant disregard. Mr. DeRensis added that by definition taking money for caring for a dog is a kennel and a person would need a kennel license. Mr. Rhein asked how large the dogs were and Officer Collins believed they were about 110 pounds. Mr. DeRensis asked how big the dog that died was and Officer Collins stated around fourteen pounds. Mr. Aptowitz thanked those residents who came forward because he knows that can be very difficult. He stated that people cannot be afraid of being outside in their own yards and hopes that the Board can take stringent measures to deal with this because everything about this complaint is unacceptable. Mr. Trowbridge asked Officer Collins if he would deem the dogs dangerous or nuisances. Officer Collins responded that in his opinion he would highly recommend that the Board deem them dangerous dogs. Ms. Turk came forward and asked if its possible to deem a dog both dangerous and a nuisance and Mr. DeRensis answered that you have to pick one or the other. Motion: To close the public hearing at 7:20PM. (Rhein/Aptowitz) Passes 4:0 Motion: To declare the two Canary Mastiffs dogs Cora and Nahla as dangerous dogs. (Rhein/Aptowitz) Passes 4:0 Mr. DelVecchio asked Officer Collins to confirm that it should be a dangerous dog and not a nuisance dog because the nuisance dog would give the Board more flexibility in the order. Officer Collins stated that based on the evidence they are dangerous dogs and are willing to go after small animals like chickens. Mr. DeRensis added that this recommendation does go along with the statute. Motion: To order the following conditions per MGL Chapter 140 Section 157 that the dogs Nahla and Cora must be confined to the premises of the keeper of the dogs; provided, however, that "confined shall mean securely confined indoors or confined outdoors in a securely enclosed and locked pen or dog run area upon the premises of the owner or keeper; provided further, that such pen or dog run shall have a secure roof and, if such enclosure has no floor secured to the sides thereof, the sides shall be embedded into the ground for not less than 2 feet; and provided further, that within the confines of such pen or dog run, a dog house or proper shelter from the elements shall be provided to protect the dogs.
