Raymond may enforce breed-specific or dangerous dog ordinances. Mississippi does not have a statewide breed ban but allows municipalities to adopt local breed restrictions.
Raymond may have breed-specific legislation under local animal control ordinances authorized by MS Code Ann. §21-19-9. Mississippi does not preempt local breed restrictions, meaning individual municipalities can ban or restrict specific breeds. Some Mississippi cities restrict pit bulls, Rottweilers, and other breeds deemed dangerous. Alternatively, many municipalities use behavior-based dangerous dog ordinances rather than breed bans. Dangerous dogs may be required to be muzzled in public, maintained in secure enclosures, and carry liability insurance. MS Code Ann. §95-5-23 addresses liability for dog bites and animal attacks. Owners of declared dangerous dogs face strict liability for injuries. Registration of dangerous dogs with local animal control is typically required.
Unregistered dangerous dog: $200 to $500 fine. Loose dangerous dog: $500+ fine and possible impoundment. Dog bite liability under MS Code Ann. §95-5-23.
