Fillmore does not impose breed-specific legislation or bans on any dog breed. California state law (Food & Agricultural Code §31683) preempts cities from enacting breed-specific dangerous dog ordinances. All dogs are regulated based on individual behavior rather than breed.
Under California Food & Agricultural Code §31683, no governmental agency can adopt or enforce breed-specific regulations for potentially dangerous or vicious dogs. Fillmore follows this state framework, regulating dogs based on individual behavior under Ventura County Animal Services oversight. Dogs that bite or behave aggressively are evaluated individually. Owners of dogs declared potentially dangerous or vicious must comply with enclosure, insurance, and muzzle requirements regardless of breed. Ventura County Animal Services at (805) 388-4341 handles dangerous dog declarations.
While no breed restrictions exist, owners of dogs declared potentially dangerous face requirements including secure enclosure, $100,000+ liability insurance, and muzzling in public. Failure to comply with dangerous dog requirements can result in impoundment and fines through Ventura County Animal Services.
