Can I let my dog run loose if he is licensed?
No! It is against the law. Ohio law specifies that all dogs must be confined to your property or under reasonable control - such as on a leash when being walked.

It is not safe to let your dog roam the neighborhood. He can get hit by a car, become lost, damage neighbors' property, or injure another animal or person.
