Lane County does not ban any dog breed. Instead of breed labels, the Animal Services Code regulates individual dogs by behavior, classifying "dangerous behavior" by class after a dog menaces, chases, bites, or injures, and imposing leash, enclosure, muzzle, and signage rules.
Lane Code Chapter 7 contains no breed-specific list. LC 7.005.130 targets conduct: a dog at large that menaces or chases livestock/domestic animals is Class C dangerous behavior; menacing a person is Class B; biting a person or domestic animal, or killing an animal, is Class A; and a dog that causes serious injury or death to a person is the most serious Class A. LC 7.005.135 then lets a court order restrictions on that specific dog - a physical barrier for Class C, a secure enclosure plus warning signs for Class B, and for a person-biting dog a muzzle and leash under an adult's control off the property. The Director may decline to prosecute where the victim provoked or tormented
Failure to comply with LC 7.005.135 dangerous-behavior restrictions is a Class A violation. A dog causing serious injury or death to a person (LC 7.005.130C.5) shall be euthanized.
