HURLEY – The Hurley City Council amends an ordinance that will allow pit bull terriers used as service animals to be exempt from the city ban on the breed. Police Chief Chris Colassaco stated the city has been wrestling with the issue for some time, and that moving ahead may be difficult, since some pit bull owners will simply claim their dog is a service animal. City Attorney Ray O’Dea agreed that moving forward would be difficult, but that the city is not without power to deal with dogs that have been specifically identified as vicious.
