I missed her question, but most of those laws have loopholes...she could apply for a kennel license or her dogs may have been "grandfathered in" if she had them before the law took effect. There is no law in my city, county, or state limiting the number of dogs a person can own. My city is very tough on personal responsibility of dog owners, though. There are stiff fines for not cleaning up after your dogs, not licensing, allowing barking, tethering, allowing your dog to roam the neighborhood, etc. I guess the city council has decided that it's a matter of personal freedom to decide how many dogs you can handle, and if you can't take care of them, that's when they come down on you.

General living out futher more are allowed. I really don’t know how they decide it, I live in the city [St. Louis] and a household can have 4 dogs here. I know from glancing at the sheet there were some cities in the st. Louis county that only allowed up to 3 dogs. I can understand why they have limits but if someone has enough space and can properly care for a pack of say 10 dogs. I really don’t see why they shouldn’t honestly with all the dogs in shelters. Why prevent a good home just because they have more animals. If all the dogs weren’t getting good care or proper attention I could understand.

Not all towns have a limit on the number of pets allowed. I read that poor woman's story and quite frankly, I'd be moving. No way would I give up one of my dogs. It’s usually a local ordinance.

Sacramento County you can have four dogs.... If you want more than four dogs, you must apply for a permit and be propertly setup as a kennel. From what I understand, the County has made the requirements to obtain the permit more difficult to obtain. Response to THE MIST - when I lived in the Palm Springs area, I had 5 dogs and all were registered with the city. Again, California is by County :) Some states it is by County.
