Dog Warden Service
What does the Dog Warden service do?
The service promotes responsible Dog ownership within Cheshire

The service deals with the symptoms of irresponsible dog

We will:
- Respond to all general complaints as soon as possible, however
always within 3 working days.
- Respond urgently to sightings of stray dogs.
- Collect stray dogs and keep them safely for a maximum of 7 days
for collection by owner (subject to the payment of a fee).
- Operate a non-destruction policy for any dog not reclaimed, and
working with partner organisations to get the dog rehomed.
- Visit schools and other groups to present responsible dog
ownership.
- Enforce dog related bye-laws and the Cleaner Neighbourhoods and
Environment Act 2005.
- Operate a micro-chipping service to promote responsible dog
