If you have lost your pet
If we find your pet, we will try to contact you if it is wearing a registration tag with your details on it. Please ensure your contact details are up to date in our system.
You can also contact the Cranbourne Animal Shelter Lost Dogs' Home.
If your pet wasn't wearing a registration tag, the Lost Dogs Home keeps a list of dogs and cats that have been found.
The RSPCA has some advice to help you find your pet.
If you have found a pet
If you find someone else's pet, please check if the collar has the owner's contact information.
If you cannot contact the owner, you should arrange for the animal to be taken to a council pound, an approved animal welfare organisation, or an approved premises, such as a veterinary practice. The shelter or premises can scan the pet for a microchip and try to contact the owner.
You can also use social media to post a photo of the animal.
