If you have lost your dog and want to check if we have found it, or if you are interested in adopting a dog, click here or to see the dog gallery photographs of dogs that we currently have in the kennels.

Lost pets is a service aimed at anyone who has lost a family pet. It holds photographs and details of all types of lost animals for a period of one month. Designed to make searching for a lost pet much easier, it allows you to print off a personalised lost pet poster to distribute in your local area.

There is a charge for reclaiming your lost dog and for purchasing a dog from us. A charge is also made for neutering vouchers (only available for dogs that have passed through the council kennels) and also for microchipping your dog. See here for a full list of current charges.

If you are looking for advice or help for other animal species we will try to assist, either from our own knowledge, or by helping you to contact the specialists. If you wish to know more about urban foxes and how to control them, click here.

You can use the service request button to make complaints about stray dogs, fouling or just to make a general enquiry about the service we provide. Please note, we will not take anonymous complaints which require us to visit or deal with another person or address.

If you wish to report a noise nuisance caused by a barking dog, please contact the Pollution Control section. We will however give general advice on barking dogs.
