Gene Reece plays tape for County Commission members of barking dog
An Ooltewah man went before the County Commission, saying he is seeking some sort of regulation out in the county about barking dogs.

Gene Reece said a redbone hound acquired by neighbor Glenn Lowe to keep deer out of his garden barks all nights and keeps him up. He said it also bothers other members of his family and his renters at Harrison Bay Road.

Mr. Reece, who played a tape of the dog barking, said, "It's not bow-wow. It's bow-wow, wow, wow, wow."

He said his neighbor first asked him to shoot the deer, but he said he told him he could not be firing a gun across a road.

Mr. Reece said the neighbor then got the dog.

Commission members recommend that Mr. Reece seek help from the Legislature.

County Attorney Rheubin Taylor said he could file a lawsuit seeking to abate a nuisance.
