Stray dogs
Our Stray Dog Services operate between 9am and 1am the
following morning.
Between the hours of 5pm and 1am and also at weekends and bank
holidays the service is 'Secured Strays only'. This
means we are not able to try to catch dogs.
Call 0845 121 2971 to report a
stray dog.
Seized dogs will be taken to Manchester Dogs Home during opening
hours and can be reclaimed provided the appropriate fee is
paid.

At weekends and bank holidays contact Animal Wardens
Ltd. Call 0845 241 7253 to report a stray dog.

Lost and found dogs
The Animal wardens will accept details of dogs that have been
lost or found and retained by the finder in the hope that they can
