House Bill 1026 prohibits cities from making breed specific laws unless there are number of conditions meet.
Due to other commitments I have not had an opportunity to research the new laws/ordnances.
The list below is outdated and you should contact your respected city for clarification.
The state of Washington does have a very weak breed specific law.
” The state may not meet its burden of proof that the owner should have known the dog was potentially dangerous solely by showing the dog to be a particular breed or breeds. In addition, the dog shall be immediately confiscated by an animal control authority, quarantined, and upon conviction of the owner destroyed in an expeditious and humane manner.”
