We are sorry to hear that your pet has gone missing. We hope our tips below will be helpful:

Please give our Clinic and Rehoming Centre a call on 0117 9724567 and 0117 9776043 to see if we have taken in your pet.

If you have lost a dog please call your local dog wardens:
Contact the Bristol City dog wardens on 0117 9222500
Contact the South Gloucestershire dog wardens on 01454 868000

Oher useful tips:

  • Ask neighbours to check their sheds and garages.
  • Put up posters in your local area.
  • Call local vets to see if your pet has been taken there.
  • Visit Pets Located – an online resource for lost and found pets.

Microchipping is the most effective way of ensuring you are always reunited with your pet if they are lost, and it is now a legal requirement that all dogs are chipped.
