LAPU-LAPU Lapu City Mayor Junard “Ahong” Chan has reminded constituents who own cows, goats and dogs to keep them on a leash to prevent road accidents.

There have been instances when drivers, mostly of motorcycles, crash when they encounter these animals suddenly crossing the street.

“Owner of animals shall see to it that these animals/pets shall not stray in public, streets, plazas, parks and public spaces. Any stray animal shall be impounded at the barangay hall where it was caught and shall only be released upon payment of fine.”
