## Report a concern
You can report a concern if you notice an animal by-law infraction. For example, you can file a complaint if you see a dog without a leash, an owner not cleaning up after its dog on other people's property or an animal posing a threat to your safety.
## Lost and found pets
If your pet goes missing, contact our Animal Control Officer to confirm if the dog has been impounded.
When pets are found by an Animal Control Officer, we do everything we can to contact its owner and bring it home safely. Any pet that is lost or found and is taken to the dog pound will acquire an initial pound fee of $50.00 plus a daily animal care fee of $30.00.
