The current law in Sonoma County limits households to four dogs and/or four cats. They change it by circumstance. However if you are keeping fewer than four dogs or cats in neglectful, inhumane conditions, it's not against the law. Please let Animal Control and especially Efrin Carrillo know that while it can be a problem if people have too many animals, the law should be about the condition of the animals first. Responsible rescuers who have more than four animals in excellent conditions are being harassed.
