30951.  It is unlawful for any person to own, harbor, or keep any
dog over the age of four months, or to permit such a dog which is
owned, harbored, or controlled by him to run at large, unless the dog
has attached to its neck or leg a substantial collar on which one of
the following is fastened:
   (a) A metallic tag which gives the name and post office address of
the owner.
   (b) A metal license tag which is issued by the authority of a
county, city and county, or any municipal corporation for the purpose
of identifying the dog and designating the owner.

collar of any dog except the dog which is described in the
application for such license tag.



30953.  Except as otherwise provided in this division, it is
unlawful for any person to kill, injure, or impound any dog, if the
owner of the dog has complied with the provisions of this division.



30954.  It is unlawful for any person to permit any female dog which
is owned, harbored, or controlled by him, to run at large at any
time during the period when the dog is in heat or breeding condition.



30955.  It is unlawful for any person to permit any dog which is
owned, harbored, or controlled by him to run at large on any farm on
which livestock or domestic fowls are kept, without the consent of
the owner of the farm, except for herding livestock, hunting or
sporting purposes, or any competitive trials when the dog is within
reasonable control or call of his owner or the agent of his owner.




30956.  In an action for violation of Section 30955, the court may
stay imposition of a sentence and order the defendant to compensate
