Looks like the writer of this law has problems with proper sentence structure!

Or, the dog just needs to remember to keep its master on a leash when they leave the house. Definitely sounds like a California thing.

This one actually isn’t very stupid. Why would someone let their dog out like that?

Not stupid at all… why would a dog take it’s master out before putting a leash on? The dog wouldn’t want its owner to run away.
