Henderson HMC Title 6 caps the number of dogs and cats per residential dwelling absent a kennel or hobby permit, with separate counts allowed in single-family versus multifamily zones to manage noise, sanitation, and welfare.
Henderson HMC Title 6 typically allows up to three dogs and three cats per single-family dwelling, with multifamily units often limited to fewer animals depending on HOA and lease terms. Owners exceeding the limit must obtain a hobby kennel or commercial kennel permit, which adds inspection, setback, and noise standards. Counts apply to animals over four months old. Service and emotional support animals receive accommodation under federal disability law. Adjacent Clark County unincorporated areas use comparable caps, but exact numbers vary by zoning district. Verify current limits through Henderson Animal Care and Henderson Development Services before adding pets.
Exceeding pet limits without a permit can trigger 100 to 500 dollar citations, mandatory rehoming plans, and potential animal impound if welfare concerns are documented during inspection.
