Chula Vista, CA Animal Ordinances: Pet Store Rules (2026)

108 flatly states that pet shops are prohibited from selling dogs or cats in the City of Chula Vista, closing off the retail puppy-and-kitten sales channel citywide with no exception written into the section itself. 040 requires a written application plus payment of an annual inspection fee, with permits expiring every December 31st regardless of issue date. 090 requires kennels and catteries to be sited in a well-isolated area, with animals kept at least 20 feet from any door, window, or opening of a private dwelling, or held in a soundproofed room if the facility sits in a congested area. 060 lets the City Manager's designee suspend or revoke a permit on findings that sanitation failures or animal-related hazards endanger public health and welfare.
