Current charges
Dogs entering the kennels are checked for illness or injury and are treated by a vet if necessary.
Owners have seven days to claim their dog and every effort is made by the wardens and kennel staff to contact owners.
There is a charge for this service which must be paid before the dog is collected (cash accepted).
Dogs reclaimed within 4 hours £52 per dog
Dogs reclaimed after one day £108.16 per dog
Dogs reclaimed after two day £123.60 per dog
Dogs reclaimed after three day £142.48 per dog
Dogs reclaimed after four day £155.53 per dog
Dogs reclaimed after five day £174.72 per dog

Dogs reclaimed and staying with the kennels for an extended period (charge per night) £12.00 per dog
Further, where the Council has found it necessary to pay for an additional service for the dog including the out of hours provision or vet treatment, the fees should be passed on to the owner reclaiming the dog. However there will be discretion given to the Kennels Officer on the level of charging due to unusual circumstances.
Re-homing fees
The price of each dog is variable and will be established taking the characteristics of each dog into consideration.
