We operate 7 days a week.

Weekends and Bank holidays 9am to 4pm.
Any reports of a stray dog received outside of these hours will not be picked up until a dog warden returns to duty the following day, an out of hours reception point is available accessible be the above found lost or stray e-form.
Recovered Dogs
If a dog is picked up and it is wearing a collar or is microchipped with correct owner details, we will make every effort to return the dog to its owner, a Fixed Penalty Notice will normally be issued.
If the dog is picked up on more than one occasion or cannot be identified, it will be taken to our kennels.
If a dog is not collected by the owner within 7 days of being seized then Nottingham City will legally assume ownership of that dog. The majority of the strays that are left unclaimed are re-homed but in certain circumstances they do have to be put to sleep.
NB Cash payments and cheques are not accepted.
