Dog Warden

Cork County Council's Veterinary section has been operating its dog control service since 1986, in accordance with the Control of Dogs Act, 1986. This service aims to promote responsible dog ownership by taking the following initiatives:

• Collecting stray dogs.
• Investigating sheep kills.
• Investigating nuisance caused by dangerous dogs or dogs not under proper control.

In order for this service to succeed, constant communication with the general public, dog owners, veterinary surgeons and animal welfare groups is essential.
Clonakilty Town Council works in conjunction with Cork County Council’s Veterinary section to ensure a safe environment for both the public and dogs in the Clonakilty area.
