“Sec. 4. Penalty. A violation of Section 3 hereof shall cause the immediate impounding of said
animals including the vehicles used to transport them by the police who shall take over the said animals to
the proper authorities. The City Veterinarian, the Pound Keeper, Barangay Tanods, Barangay Officials or

(NOTE: [a] Section 1 of Ordinance No. 572, s. 1973 reads, “It shall be unlawful for any person/s to spit or
