The Board determined that repeated escapes and threatening behavior toward pedestrians supported a nuisance-dog finding, but the evidence did not show an attack or injury required for a dangerous-dog finding. The owner said a six-foot fence had been installed and agreed to complete the enclosure and take additional steps to keep the dog contained. The Board also approved its June 11 meeting minutes.
