Section 3335-13-05 - Control of dogs and other animals(A) No person shall permit a dog or other animal under their ownership or control upon the grounds of the university unless it is on a leash or harness not more than six feet in length and under the owner or handler's personal control, unless otherwise permitted to do so by the university. A dog or other animal that is leashed or harnessed but unattended is not under the personal control of its owner or keeper.(B) No person shall permit a dog or other animal under their ownership or control to enter any university building or housing, except for service animals, therapy animals, support animals, and/or any other type of animal approved by the university to accompany individuals in such areas provided that the person complies with any restrictions or limitations set by the university and such animal remains under the personal control of its owner or handler in accordance with paragraph (A) of this rule. This rule shall not, however, prevent persons from bringing animals into university buildings for approved research purposes or for observation or care by university veterinary personnel.(C) Any dog or other animal found upon the grounds of the university or in any university building, except as permitted pursuant to the provisions of paragraphs (A) and (B) of this rule, may be taken into custody by university authorities. University authorities may, in their discretion, turn the dog or other animal over to appropriate county or municipal authorities for delivery to the custody of the humane society or other animal shelter. In such an event, the owner or handler must contact the entity to which the animal was delivered to recover the animal in accordance with that entity's rules. The university may further require the owner or handler of such a dog or other animal to reimburse the university for costs incurred in impounding the dog or other animal and turning it over to the control and custody of county or municipal authorities.Ohio Admin.
