Linden does not ban any specific dog breeds. New Jersey's Vicious and Potentially Dangerous Dog Act (N.J.S.A. 4:19-17 et seq.) uses a behavior-based approach. No breed-specific legislation in NJ.
New Jersey does not have a statewide breed ban. The NJ Vicious and Potentially Dangerous Dog Act (N.J.S.A. 4:19-17 et seq.) provides behavior-based dangerous dog designations. Some NJ municipalities have attempted local breed restrictions with mixed results. Individual dog behavior, not breed, determines dangerous dog designation under state law. Municipal courts handle dangerous dog proceedings. HOA breed restrictions are separate from municipal law.
Dangerous dog violation: significant fines, mandatory containment, liability insurance. Vicious dog: possible euthanasia order.
