Leash Law
The leash law requires that all dogs are on a leash and in the hands of a competent person when off your property. Dogs should not be allowed to run free, and you will receive a citation for the offense. As a reminder, the Columbine Country Club is private property and trespassing laws are enforced.
Pet owners are encouraged to keep a close watch on their pets. Small dogs and cats outside can be an attractive food source for coyotes and other wildlife. Always supervise your pet outside and keep your dog on a short leash while walking.
Please pick up after your dog as necessary.
Dog Licensing
Dog licenses are not required in Columbine Valley. Our ordinances do require that all dogs be vaccinated and have a rabies tag. Your dog should wear his or her collar and the tag.
Three-Dog Limit
As of November 2021, the Town updated its municipal code to limit the number of allowable dogs to three per household. This applies to all zoning districts, including agriculturally zoned lots. Residents currently owning more than three dogs are required to register those animals with the Town on or before January 30, 2022.
