Driving Anchorage, Alaska

You cannot tie a dog to the roof of your vehicle.

Status: Still Enforced / On the Books

The Law Explained

Perhaps inspired by bad pet parenting or misguided sled dog transport, Anchorage made it illegal to secure an animal to the exterior roof or trunk of a car. Transporting a sled dog team requires proper kennels, not a roof rack.
