Eugene does not ban any dog breeds. Oregon law (ORS 609.090-609.190) classifies dogs as potentially dangerous or dangerous based on behavior, not breed. A dog may be declared potentially dangerous after biting or menacing without provocation.

Owners of designated dangerous dogs who fail to comply face criminal charges, fines, and potential destruction of the animal.
