Redondo Beach, CA Animal Ordinances: Dog Leash Laws (2026)

103, in the Animals chapter's Dogs article, makes it unlawful for anyone harboring or controlling a dog to permit it to run at large on any public street, alley, lane, park or other public place, or on any unenclosed lot or premises in the City, unless the dog is restrained by a substantial chain or leash not exceeding six feet in length and is in the charge, care, custody or control of a competent person. The section carves out a flat, no-leash-helps exception for two settings: no dog is allowed on any beach, and none may enter any store, market, restaurant, cafe, lunch room, soda fountain, bakery, or kindred establishment where food for human consumption is served, sold, or kept for sale, regardless of restraint.

104 clarifies the flip side: an owner may let a dog run loose on their own property without violating the at-large rule, provided the property is enclosed so as to prevent the dog from escaping. 103. 111, held five days, and, unless redeemed, humanely disposed of, with no sale or release permitted until license fees and penalties owed to the City are paid.
