The Poundmaster shall take up and place in isolation any animal, licensed or not,
which, in the opinion of a licensed veterinarian or the County Health Officer, displays
symptoms suggestive of rabies. Such isolation shall be at an animal pound unless the
owner of such animal, with the approval of the County Health Officer, arranges with
a licensed veterinarian for such isolation in a private animal hospital or clinic.
Any animal placed in such isolation shall be kept strictly confined and under such
observation as may be required by the County Health Officer. Except as otherwise provided
in Section 4460, such isolation shall continue for at least ten (10) days from the date the symptoms
suggestive of rabies are first observed. Such isolation may be continued for a period
longer than ten (10) days if, in the opinion of any licensed veterinarian or the County
Health Officer, such longer period is necessary. At the expiration of such ten (10)
days, or longer period, any animal confined at an animal pound shall be released upon
payment of the fee set forth in Section 4459 if, in the opinion of any licensed veterinarian or the County Health Officer, such
animal does not have rabies.
