Oldham Council updates stray dog policy after pressure from Sykes  

Oldham Council have issued a new policy just one day after Liberal Democrat Group Leader councillor Howard Sykes MBE slammed the lack of support available to residents trying to report a stray dog.

Councillor Sykes said, “Residents got in touch because they were frustrated with the lack of support available on the council website if you come across a stray dog.”

“At long last, the Council has now provided some contact details that residents can use.”     

Residents can report a stray or lost dog to Acorn Kennels on weekdays (Monday to Friday), between 8am and 3.45pm by using the online reporting page or by phoning 01948 662931.
