Logan, UT Animal Ordinances: Pet Limits (2026)

Section 6A.06.010 of the Logan Municipal Code, part of Title 6A Comprehensive Animal Control, caps household animals at four (4) dogs or four (4) cats at any one residence, with no combination exceeding six (6). The cap covers owning, harboring, licensing or maintaining an animal, so a dog kept for someone else counts the same as one you own. Section 6A.02.030 defines a residence as any legally recognized dwelling such as a home, apartment or condominium, which puts renters and condominium owners under the same limit as owners of houses. A dog is a Canis familiaris over four (4) months of age, and a cat is any age feline of the domestic type.

The way past the cap is a kennel/cattery license under § 6A.06.080, issued by animal control. It is separate from, and in addition to, the business license the city requires. The applicant needs city approval, any approvals required by the local Health Department, and compliance with federal, state and local regulations, then submits those approvals to animal control. The city provides animal control with a written total of the dogs and/or cats allowed at the establishment, and animal control and/or the city building inspector performs one or more on-site inspections. An annual fee set by the city applies, and the license is valid for one year.

A license is posted conspicuously on the premises, kept valid while the establishment operates, and is non-transferable to a new business or location (§ 6A.06.090). The licensee notifies the city and animal control within thirty (30) days of any change that affects its status (§ 6A.06.100). Denial, suspension or revocation can follow an incomplete application, false information, a failed inspection or a nuisance operation (§ 6A.06.140). Exotic animals have their own cap of five (5) permitted exotic animals per residence (§ 6A.06.020).
