Fresno County does not impose breed-specific restrictions. California Food & Ag Code §31683 preempts breed-based bans but permits breed-specific spay/neuter rules. County regulates dangerous dogs by behavior under §6.04.200, not breed.
No breed ban exists in Fresno County Code. CA Food & Ag Code §31683 bars municipalities from enacting breed-specific bans but allows breed-specific mandatory spay/neuter and breeding regulations. Fresno County relies on the state dangerous/vicious dog framework (CA Food & Ag Code §31601-31683) applied based on individual dog behavior.
Dangerous dog determination under §6.04.200 can require secure enclosure, muzzling in public, liability insurance, and posted warnings. Violating restrictions: misdemeanor plus possible impoundment.
