DOG LEASH LAW:
The Town of Alderson has a leash law. Dogs are required to be on a leash when they are not on their own property. Please recognize that dog ownership comes with the responsibility of cleaning up after your pet. Dog waste is a potential health hazard and a nuisance if not picked up. It does not just go away on its own. Dog owners are required to pay a license fee for each dog. Forms are available in the Assessor’s office at the Greenbrier County Courthouse at 200 North Court Street, Lewisburg, WV 24901.
