(A) Because of the pit bull’s inbred propensity to attack other animals, and because of the danger posed to humans and animals alike by a pit bull when running loose or while running together in a pack situation, pit bulls must at all times be securely confined indoors, or confined in a securely and totally enclosed or locked pen, with either a top or with sides six feet high.
(B) At any time that a pit bull is not confined as required in division (A) above, the dog shall be muzzled in a manner as to prevent it from biting or injuring any person or animal, and kept on a leash with the owner or custodian in attendance.
(C) An exception to this section is provided for any pit bull in attendance at, and participating in, any lawful dog show, contest, or exhibition sponsored by a dog club, association, society, or similar organization.
(D) An exception to this section is provided for any pit bull when the dog is actually engaged in the sport of hunting in authorized areas and supervised by a competent person.
