Shasta County Animal Control Information

If you or a loved one has suffered through a dog bite attack in Shasta County, you suddenly find yourself in a very difficult situation.

If this has happened to you, seek immediate medical attention and make sure that the incident is reported to the proper authorities.

LEASH LAWS

Dogs are cherished members of the family, joining us in our daily routines and outdoor activities. We often bring them along for walks, outings, and exercise to keep them healthy and happy. When taking dogs into public spaces in Shasta County, it’s important to keep them securely leashed for the safety of people, other animals, and the dog themselves. Unfortunately, not everyone follows this basic responsibility, which can lead to dangerous situations, injuries, or the need for animal control involvement. Learn more by visiting our Shasta County dog leash laws page.

That’s easier said than done, though, as many people are not aware of whom to contact to report a Shasta County dog bite attack. The Dog Bite Law Group is here to help, though.
