The City may declare an individual dog as dangerous if: (a) the dog has caused injury or damage by an attack on, or chasing, a person, animal or vehicle; or (b) the dog has, repeatedly, shown a tendency — (i) to attack, or chase, a person, animal or vehicle even though no injury has been caused by that behaviour; or (ii) to threaten to attack. Owners of dogs declared as dangerous must comply with the requirements of the Dog Act 1976 or face penalties, including fines.
The Dog Act 1976 and the Dog Regulations 2013 provide information on dangerous dogs (restricted breeds). Under the Dog Act a dangerous dog (restricted breed) is defined as a breed whose import into Australia is prohibited. Please see the WA Rangers Restricted Breed Dogs information for a list of current restricted breeds in WA. Please note this includes pure and cross breeds.
You must follow legislative requirements for keeping a restricted breed dog which includes mixed breeds.
