JOSEPH, Ore. — Wallowa County Commissioner Paul Castilleja is trying to raise money for a countywide dog control program that could include a limit on the number of dogs allowed per household.

The commissioner told the Joseph City Council he wants cities in the Eastern Oregon county to contribute to a fund that would help pay for a full-time dog control officer.

The La Grande Observer reports that Castilleja’s list of proposals for the program includes one that would limit each household to a maximum of two dogs. Another would prohibit dogs from city and county parks.
