HarrisCountyAnimalControladvises,“All dogs and cats must be kept under restraint while in the unincorporated areas of Harris County, Texas. The custodian of a dog or cat is not authorized to have, harbor or keep any unlicensed dog or cat nor to allow any dog or cat to become a stray.” Restraint is defined as “the control of a dog or cat under the following circumstances:1.When it is controlled by a line or leash not more than six (6)feet in length, if the line or leash is held by a human being who is capable of controlling or governing the dog or cat in question.
