Report it promptly

Contact the council for the area where your dog was last seen. Shropshire Council and Telford & Wrekin Council have separate reporting services. The help page links to both.

Gather a clear description

Keep a recent photo, the last-seen location and time, collar details and microchip information ready. Contact your microchip provider and local vets.

If you find a dog

Note its location and description. Do not put yourself or the dog at risk by chasing or forcing contact. Use the council’s current found-dog guidance and report the sighting.
