Danville mayor charged, will pay fines thanks to escape-prone pup

Even Danville’s mayor is not immune to fines when it comes to securing his pets, including a husky with a preference to roam.

Mayor Mike Perros will have to make an appearance in the Boyle County District Court today to answer for the husky, his most recent family addition. Perros faces charges of having his dog not vaccinated, not licensed, and not confined or controlled at night.

Perros said his dogs are all up on their shots and licenses, but his husky wasn’t wearing those tags when he decided to roam outside the property. The dogs typically stay outdoors unless the temperatures drop into the 30s or below.
