Maintenance of kennels

Any owner of six or more dogs, each of which is not less than six months in age, and which are held for profit, breeding or exhibition purposes shall be deemed the operator of a commercial dog kennel. Such dog kennel shall be kept in a clean and sanitary condition at all times. The owner thereof shall operate the premises whereon dogs are held in such manner as to prevent annoyance to the neighborhood or the general public created by reason of odors or loud, frequent, habitual barking, yelping or howling emanating therefrom.
