Shreveport does not ban specific dog breeds. Louisiana state law and city ordinances regulate dogs based on behavior. Dogs that have bitten or attacked may be declared dangerous.

Repeated incidents may result in mandatory euthanasia by court order.
Owners of declared dangerous dogs who fail to comply face fines, seizure of the animal, and criminal charges.
