Estimated U.S. Cities, Counties, States and Military Facilities with Breed-Specific Laws

Estimated number of countries worldwide with breed-specific laws is also included.

[1] Not all jurisdictions within a county that restricts pit bulls are subject to the county law. This document lists all incorporated cities within such counties and in several states, also includes incorporated towns and villages, but makes no determination as to whether these incorporated municipalities are required to abide by county law. [2] Breed-specific ordinances have been enacted by municipalities in 33 different U.S. states. Currently, no U.S. state has a state-level breed-specific law.[3] Sources are derived from the DogsBite.org website and Wikipedia. This document makes no determination as to whether the military facilities listed actually contain privatized housing.
