Is your pet microchipped?
If your pet is microchipped, alert PetLog of your missing pet on 0870 60 66 751. It may also be advisable to contact your vet.
To help prevent your pet becoming permanently lost we recommend that you get it microchipped. If your pet is already microchipped, please ensure your contact details on the microchip database are kept up to date. You can talk to your vet for more information about this.
What do we do with stray dogs?
We are required by law to pick up stray dogs reported to us. We will visit the location where the dog is seen and attempt to locate the owner by checking for dog tags and microchips.
If an owner is found, they will be contacted as soon as possible. If an owner cannot be found, the stray dogs will be kept in our kennels or rehomed. Suitable dogs not claimed within seven days will be transferred to an approved re-homing centre.
Rehoming enquiries
For re-homing enquiries, please contact an approved re-homing centre.
