If your dog causes physical harm to another pet or human, it can be taken by officers. Also, if it is causing a disturbance to people, it can be subject to removal by authorities. Certainly if an animal is sick or injured and the owner is not taking care of it, officers can seize the creature. In any case, the animal has to be reported to be seized. Local ordinances are those that usually set the bounds for what can and cannot be done by animal control/police officers, and there are a lot of similarities. City and county codes and regulations as well as state mandates set the framework for the actions of officers assigned to animal control duties. Your local animal control officers or SPCA would probably be happy to discuss the particulars with you. Why not give them a call? Ask about adoptions, too.
As with any law enforcement agency, if animal control has either probable cause or a warrant, they may trespass on your property as deemed fit.
