Now we just let her stay in the house to prevent more nosy neighbors complaints.

The inspector came, and determined the way we leashed her in our yard is fine, and then begins to do a routine check. Which she find the tar tar on our dog’s teeth not acceptable. We have brought her to the vet the immediate weekend to do a physical check up and the vet confirmed her teeth are healthy, only tar tar on the teeth.
Ok - so now this is making more sense. If your vet says the teeth are healthy and has stated so on an official vet report then you have nothing to worry about. Send this document (which I would do by hand) and give this the inspector and I would give a copy to the executive director just to be on the safe side.

Tethering the dog outside unattended is problematic. People are disturbed by this and rightfully so.
