(A) This section is in addition to the other responsibilities imposed by this chapter and shall not be construed to limit those responsibilities.
(B) The owner of a dog or cat in heat shall confine the animal in a building or secure enclosure that prevents the animal from coming into contact with another animal except for planned breeding purposes.
(C) The owner of a hazardous animal shall confine the animal within a building or secure enclosure except that the animal may be allowed out of such confinement provided that the animal is muzzled and under the immediate control of the owner or other responsible individual by means of a leash. If the enclosure is in the nature of a fence, to be compliant with this division, the enclosure must be secured with a lock while the animal is confined.
(D) Dogs restrained through rope, chain, or cable must have unobstructed freedom of movement of a minimum of 12 feet and an arc of not less than 180 degrees. This division does not apply to the use of a leash while the dog is being walked.
