Utah state law prohibits breed-specific legislation. Orem cannot ban or restrict specific dog breeds. Dangerous dog rules are behavior-based and apply to any breed that bites or exhibits vicious behavior.
Utah state law voids any breed-specific ordinance, meaning Orem cannot enforce bans on specific breeds such as pit bulls or Rottweilers. Dangerous dog designations are behavior-based: any dog that has bitten a person or exhibits vicious behavior may be declared dangerous regardless of breed. Owners of dangerous dogs face containment requirements, warning sign posting obligations, and potential euthanasia orders. Orem Animal Control handles dangerous dog reports.
Breed ban violations: impoundment and fines per city ordinance. Dangerous dog violations: escalating penalties.
