Borough of Telford & Wrekin

Dog warden service

We employ a dog warden to help remove stray dogs from our streets and open spaces and return them to their home wherever possible.

Dog and Bin
From April 1st 2008 Telford and Wrekin Council also took over the responsibility of stray dogs out of hours from Telford Police.

The council Dog Warden is responsible for stray dogs from 8am to 5pm Monday to Friday.

Outside these hours, Hilbrae Kennels will collect and care for stray dogs until their owners can be located.
Please note Hilbrae staff will only collect dogs which have already been caught and contained.

To contact the Dog Warden during office hours, ring the Environmental Maintenance team on 01952 384384.

To report a stray dog outside office hours contact Hilbrae Kennels on 01952 541254 or mobile number 07966 515776.
