Brick Township does not have breed-specific legislation. New Jersey follows a behavior-based approach under the Vicious and Potentially Dangerous Dog Act (N.J.S.A. 4:19-17 et seq.). Individual dogs are classified based on actions, not breed.
Brick Township does not ban or restrict any specific dog breed. New Jersey follows a behavior-based model under the Vicious and Potentially Dangerous Dog Act (N.J.S.A. 4:19-17 et seq.). A dog may be declared potentially dangerous based on its behavior, including attacks on persons or other animals. The Municipal Court makes the determination. Potentially dangerous dogs require special licensing at elevated fees and may be subject to muzzling and leashing requirements. BSL (breed-specific legislation) is rare in New Jersey.
Potentially dangerous dog license fees are significantly higher. Failure to comply with court-ordered restrictions may result in seizure of the animal.
