3-6A-2
Section 3-6A-2 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds that certain dogs are an increasingly
serious and widespread threat to the safety and welfare of citizens of this state by virtue
of their unjustified attacks on and associated injury to individuals; that these attacks are
in part attributable to the failure of owners to confine and properly train and control these
dogs; that existing laws inadequately address this problem; and that it is therefore appropriate
and necessary to impose a uniform set of state requirements on the owners of dangerous dogs.

facility and the renovation of the coliseum and to vest said corporation with all powers,

shall be liberally construed in conformity with said intent. (Acts 1984,...
