Santa Clarita does not ban any dog breeds. California state law (Food & Agriculture Code 31683) prohibits breed-specific legislation by local governments. Dogs are regulated based on individual behavior, not breed.
California prohibits local breed-specific bans under state law. Santa Clarita follows the state's behavior-based approach to dangerous dog regulation. Individual dogs that bite or menace people may be declared vicious or dangerous regardless of breed. Owners of declared dangerous dogs must comply with enclosure, muzzling, insurance, and registration requirements.
Owners of dangerous dogs failing to comply with restrictions face fines, impoundment, and potential criminal charges.
