It is unlawful for the owner/guardian or person having control of any dog to permit the dog to run at large in any public place, including without limitation, parks, school grounds, commercial districts, wildlife preserves or game refuges, or in any public watershed areas; except where the town council by ordinance or resolution has specifically permitted dogs to run at large; and where signs acknowledging such permission have been erected by the town. Every dog found running at large in violation of the provisions of this section shall be immediately seized and impounded. Any duly authorized peace officer or person exercising peace officer powers shall be entitled to take such other action as may be reasonably necessary for the protection of public health and safety.
