City of Atmore Animal Control

09/30/2026

We would like to remind our community about Beau's Law, Alabama's new animal cruelty law, which goes into effect October 1st, 2026.
Our Animal Control officers are here to help protect animals and promote responsible pet ownership throughout the City of Atmore.
Moving forward, we will be enforcing Beau's Law while also working to educate our community about the requirements of the law and what is expected of resposible pet owners.

BEAU'S LAW goes into effect in Alabama Oct. 1, 2026 - establishing strict statewide standards for how dogs may be tethered and housed outdoors. It's a step in the right direction.

• No Stationary Tethers: You cannot tie a dog directly to a stationary object like a tree, pole, fence post, or stake.

• Trolley Systems Only: If you use a tether outside, it must be a proper running trolley system.

• Safe Hardware: Tethers must have swivels on both ends. Choke collars, pinch collars, and heavy logging chains are completely banned for tethered dogs.
