The license tag for a kennel shall show the number of dogs authorized to be kept under
such license and shall have attached thereto a metal identification plate for each
of such dogs, numbered to correspond with the serial number of the license tag. The
owner of a kennel shall securely fasten the license tag to the kennel enclosure in
full view and shall keep one of the identification plates provided therewith attached
to the collar of each dog authorized to be kept enclosed in the kennel. Any identification
plates not so in use must be kept by the owner or custodian and promptly shown to
any animal control officer or other officer upon request. A kennel dog shall not be
permitted to stray beyond the limits of the enclosure, but this shall not prohibit
removing dogs therefrom temporarily while under the control of the owner or custodian
for the purpose of exercising, hunting, breeding, trial or show. A kennel shall not
be operated in such manner as to defraud the county of the license tax applying to
dogs which cannot be legally covered thereunder or to in any manner violate other
provisions of this article.
