If you’ve witnessed an aggressive or out of control animal, or an owner using an animal to intimidate people, please report antisocial behaviour to us. If you find a stray dog that isn’t sick or injured, please report it to your local council. If a vulnerable person or animal strayed into its reach, or the animal got loose, this could represent a serious danger to the public. Likewise, if you know someone who is using animals in illegal activities such as dog fighting, please report antisocial behaviour. You can find a local volunteer who will scan the animal for a microchip. This is a free service that should never charge for assistance.
