For reported found stray dogs, we will make every effort to locate their owners as quickly as possible. Firstly they will be recorded in the Latest Found Dog section of our website, followed by an advertisement being placed in the local media. We will send out found dog e-mail notifications to our website members. For microchipped dogs where details are out of date or unregistered, we will attempt to trace owners by utilising historical records and other means. We also advise members of the public who have found a stray dog the associated legislation in line with the current Environmental Protection Act.
Owners with lost or stolen dogs, we will provide a first class advisory service. Reported lost or stolen dogs will be recorded on our Latest Missing Dogs section of the website. Followed by lost dog email notifications being sent out to our members. We can also provide owners with media advice and support if required.
For stray dogs that remain unclaimed after the required waiting period, we may be requested by the kennels to source rescue placements for long term stayers, dogs with health problems, behavioural issues and breed specifics. K9 Search UK has a compiled database of vetted rescue organisations, all rescues on our database have strict criterias with regards to rehoming, neutering, vaccinations and also provide the essential life time back up for dogs that are fortunate enough to be rehomed. Our team of dedicated volunteer transporters are on hand to assist in the transportation of dogs from stray kennels to rescues throughout the UK if required.
To provide a relinquishment service for pet owners who can no longer care for their pets. We will attempt to source rescue placements from our database of approved rescues. Again providing transportation if needed.
Responsible dog ownership, is a major part of our work, we see education as the way forward. We therefore have a team of advisors that are specialised in different fields of animal welfare. We can provide information relating to the benefits of neutering, routine vaccinations, permanent identification, stray dog law etc.
As of February 2010, we are pleased to announce that we now have low cost dog neutering scheme for those on a low income or in receipt of benefits. Please contact us for more information on admin@k9searchuk.com or call 07988 433187
