WHO WE ARELeash Law Advocates of Santa Cruz County represents a diversity of residents from throughout the County. We are dog owners, foster dog owners, former dog owners, and those with no dogs.
We support animal welfare, including domestic and wild animals and we support any regulations that foster such welfare. We consider current leash laws within the County to be the best means to insure the welfare of dogs, public safety and protection of the environment. We strongly oppose the establishment of off-leash hours at County beaches. We support County Animal Services in the myriad ways they work tirelessly to manage an almost out of control proliferation of domestic animals in the County, especially dogs and cats, whose numbers increase daily. We support their continued enforcement of the County leash ordinance, to provide for public safety and the welfare of all dogs, in all public places (streets, parks, the beach). We support adequate funding so they may do their jobs. To this end, we support increased focus on getting dogs licensed, since less than 15% of dogs in the county are licensed, leaving most pet owners as part of the problem and not contributing to a solution. |
