Animal Services
More
At the Municipality of South Bruce, we are committed to creating a safe and healthy environment for all residents and pets.
Lost and found pets
If you find a dog or other pet running at large in the community, please contact us at 519-392-6623. We can come and pick up the animal only if it is contained and help find the animal’s home.
It costs $50 to reclaim a lost pet. This fee covers the cost of sheltering and looking after your pet while it was in our care.
