I Fought the Law and the Neighbors are not happy! :)

The DAY I brought my rooster home my neighbors called the sheriff on us. We are unincorporated but they filed a complaint saying he was disturbing them...the people who have had plott dogs for years in a tiny kennel who howl all the time. Yes. My tiny roo is so terrible...

The deputy came out and told me we'd have to get rid of him. I told him to bring me a document stating which code in the state or county said I had to and I'd be happy to comply. I did post him for sale in case I got said document. The SHERIFF just left my house. Apparently they called again and complained directly to him. He came out and said that the "****" rooster wasn't any louder than "barking dogs". Guess who's keeping their roo!?!

Unless they can show documentation, don't give up your fight. There isn't a law here for that! He's not a danger and is well cared for sooo he's mine!

Good for you. It is really important to know your own rights and to stand up for them.

Congratulations on keeping your roo, but I would be wary in case if they decide to get rid of him themselves.

I would much rather listen to a rooster crow then dogs yapping.

Luckily, their son is one of my students and he "loves Lightning Dragon McQueen". I think he would tell me if his step-dad was going to do something or did. I hope at least. And yes, my two year old helped name him... smh
