If you have found a stray or lost dog, here’s what you need to do next.
Stray Dogs
You must return a stray dog to its owner if you know who the owner is. If you find a stray dog and can’t contact the owner, you must report it to the council. This is a legal requirement.
We are unable to accept stray dogs at Rain Rescue.
Other animals, cruelty and abandonment
Depending on the situation, if you have concerns about cruelty or abandonment, you may need to contact the RSPCA. The RSPCA may also be able to help with concerns involving wildlife. See more information on their website here.
Founded in 2002, our charity has saved the lives of thousands of the cats and dogs most at risk in and around Yorkshire. Our rescue centre provides the space and support needed for these abandoned animals to recover, thrive and find a loving home.
