I also think your suggestion to leaving a dog outside is totally wrong, even in a gated fenced yard is not the answer. Leaving a dog in a yard while your not home when factors like heat and storms can be present are more apt to be looked at as inappropriate management than tying in the garage. There is nothing dangerous or cruel with what he has chosen to do. The problem is and many dogs who are contained have this issue in some way is his anxiety while he is left. The animal control people will find nothing wrong provided the dog is in good health, being loved and fed – IMO they would be more worried for a dog left outside all day, that's why that law was put into place.
ditto. i especially wouldnt leave a pit bull roaming loose in a fenced yard. as bad a rep as they already have, that is just inviting someone who doesnt like pit bulls or dogs in general to harm the dog or steal the dog.
