Failing to supply wholesome food and water

597e.  Any person who impounds, or causes to be impounded in any pound, any domestic animal, shall supply it during such confinement with a sufficient quantity of good and wholesome food and water, and in default thereof, is guilty of a misdemeanor.  In case any domestic animal is at any time so impounded and continues to be without necessary food and water for more than 12 consecutive hours, it is lawful for any person, from time to time, as may be deemed necessary, to enter into and upon any pound in which the animal is confined, and supply it with necessary food and water so long as it remains so confined.  Such person is not liable for the entry and may collect the reasonable cost of the food and water from the owner of the animal, and the animal is subject to enforcement of a money judgment for the reasonable cost of such food and water.

What people write to Attorney Phillips...

I got your DVD and updated my contracts accordingly. So much information - I had to watch several times to make sure I get it all. But the actual work of updating my contracts then was very, very easy. You are right, trainers really don't know. All the seminars, conferences, books and videos geared towards trainers do not mention that. Scary to think how much I didn't know before your DVD.
