First steps if you lose your dog in Brighouse

  1. 1

    Search outward along roads, paths and fields — a dog can cover several kilometres in the first few hours.

    Tip from locals

    Search outward toward Shibden Park, about 2.7 miles away, a larger open park where a dog can cover ground, then Sunny Vale Gardens at around 1.7 miles.

  2. 2

    Call the shelter, the local police and nearby vets straight away: a loose dog is usually picked up and handed in quickly.

  3. 3

    Ask people not to chase or shout — a frightened dog runs. Crouch down, avoid eye contact and call calmly.

    Tip from locals

    Ask dog walkers in Wellholme Park, about 0.2 miles away, and along the Calder and Hebble Navigation, around 0.7 miles off, to watch and call calmly rather than chase.

  4. 4

    Leave something carrying your scent, plus water, where he went missing, and check back regularly.

  5. 5

    Report him to the microchip registry and start a targeted alert that reaches the whole neighbourhood at once.

    Tip from locals

    Name Holywell Green, about 4.0 miles south-west, and Sowerby Bridge, around 5.3 miles west, as places a dog may already have reached, so include them when you spread the word.

What happens to a stray dog found in Brighouse?

Calderdale Council has stray dogs held for eight days at private kennels. If the owner does not claim the dog in that time, ownership transfers to the kennels, who try to rehome it. Report a found dog on 01422 288001 in office hours or 01422 288000 out of hours; the council does not collect dogs after 3.30pm, so finders must then take them to the kennels.

Who pays for emergency vet treatment of an injured stray dog in Brighouse?

Calderdale Council funds initial emergency treatment at any vet up to £200 (covering things like accommodation, fluids and pain relief, not x-rays or operations). The cost is re-charged to the owner if they are found.
