Miami Passes Anti-Tethering Ordinance!
The K9ADVISORS team, is volunteering to help people that chain their dogs in Miami-Dade County so they don't have their dogs taken away by the animal control. There's a new Anti Tethering law in Miami that does not allow chaining your dogs anymore - We want to help you before your neighbors turn you in. Call us today so we can help you and your dog.

Miami Passes Anti-Tethering Ordinance!
It's a great day for dogs in Miami! Here's what it says:

(a) As used in this section, tether means to restrain a dog by tying the dog  to any object or structure, including without limitation a house, tree, fence, post, garage, or shed, by any means, including without limitation a chain, rope, cord, leash, or running line. Tethering shall not include using a leash to walk a dog.

(b) It shall be unlawful for a responsible party to tether the dog while outdoors, except when all of the following conditions are met:

(1) The dog is in visual range of the responsible party, and the responsible
party is located outside with the dog.
(2) The tether is connected to the dog by a buckle-type collar or a body
harness made of nylon or leather, not less than one inch in width.
(3) The tether has the following properties: it is at least five times the
length of the dog's body, as measured from the tip of the nose to the base of
the tail; it terminates at both ends with a swivel; it does not weigh more than
1/8 of the dog's weight; and it is free of tangles.
(4) The dog is tethered in such a manner as to prevent injury, strangulation,
or entanglement.

without limitation extreme heat or near-freezing temperatures, thunderstorms,
