Laws & Fees

Chapter 6 of the City of Laredo Code of Ordinances governs how animals and fowl are to be treated, owned, and cared for in our city. It establishes standards for vaccinating pets, keeping animals from straying free, proper shelter, and humane treatment. If someone violates these rules, such as failing to care for a pet or allowing animals to roam, they may face penalties. You can find the full Chapter 6 City Ordinance “Animals and Fowl” linked below.
