"Restraint" means that an animal shall be deemed to be under restraint if:

(1) It is on the property of its owner or another entrusted with its care by the owner and the property is fenced or enclosed in such a manner that the animal cannot leave the property.

(2) It is on the property of its owner or another entrusted with its care by the owner and attached to an immovable object by a chain, leash, rope or other such substance, the length of which cannot permit the animal to leave the limits of the property. The material used must be of sufficient strength to prevent escape of the animal.

(3) It is off the property of the owner on a leash, rope or by other such means of restraint under the control of a person able to restrain the animal. The leash, rope, or other such means shall not be greater than six feet in length. (Ord. 912, § 2, 1988.)
