Municipal pound and Fees

All stray dogs found by the Township are brought to the municipal pound. Impounded dogs are subject to impound fees.

Owners must ensure that their dogs do not run at large. The provincial law requires that municipalities keep impounded dogs for a minimum of 72 hours before proceeding to the adoption process by a rescue. Unfortunately, it is not possible to adopt a dog directly from the municipal pound.
