The owner or keeper of a potentially dangerous or vicious dog must keep the dog indoors or in a securely fenced yard from which the dog cannot escape and into which children cannot trespass. Any responsible party, as defined in Chapter 6.04, must take all reasonable steps to ensure that the owner or keeper of a potentially dangerous or vicious dog complies with the provisions of the prior sentence, otherwise the responsible party shall be in violation of this section. A potentially dangerous dog may be off the owner’s or keeper’s premises only if it is restrained by a substantial leash of appropriate length and if it is under a responsible adult’s control.
