Latest version.
  • A.

    No owner or person having control of any animal shall permit it to run at large in the city unless the animal is contained within a park specifically designated for the animal's species.

    B.

    Any animal outside the fenced yard of the owner or keeper must be under control of a leash or other device by which it may be led except during the time the animal is confined within a park specifically designated for the animal's species.

    C.

    No owner or keeper of any animal shall permit it to be chained, staked, grazed or herded on any unenclosed premises so that any part of the animal extends onto or over a sidewalk, street, alley, or other public property or beyond the owner or keeper's property or in a common area accessible to the public. Any chained animal must have a chain of at least sufficient length to allow the animal access to food, water, shelter and shade, but not so long as to enable the animal to harm itself.
