    B.    There shall be no more than two miniature pigs per residence.

    C.    Every person owning or having charge, care, custody or control of any miniature pig shall keep such miniature pig exclusively upon the property identified in the permit; provided, however, that such miniature pig may be off such premises if it is under the control of a competent person and restrained by a substantial chain or leash not exceeding six feet in length.
