2026-08-13 CPC ASMC Dangerous Dog Hearing

The Caddo Parish Commission held a Dangerous Dog Hearing on August 13, 2026, to review the classification of two dogs, Trump and Ka, as dangerous following an incident where the dogs bit a neighbor's dog. The hearing included testimony from the dog owner, the victim, and animal control officers. The commission upheld the director's decision to deem the dogs dangerous, outlining the requirements the owner must comply with, including secure confinement, microchipping, wearing a dangerous dog collar, posting warning signs, and muzzling the dogs when off the property. The owner was informed of the right to appeal the decision within three days and was advised on the necessary steps to meet compliance. Discussions also touched on the costs associated with the dogs' impoundment and the inspection process for the enclosure. No contract awards or procurement decisions were made during this meeting.
