What to do if you find a stray animal
REMINDER: the PVHS is unable to accept strays at our facility. If you find a stray or injured animal, please contact the officer in the area in which that animal is found.
Monday to Friday - please call your local city/town/RM or animal control officers at one of the numbers below to report a lost or found animal, and they will direct you to the appropriate pound.
Evenings / Weekends / Holidays - please call the appropriate number below; they may operate after hours. For Morden, Winkler, the RM of Stanley, the RM of Roland, or the RM of Thompson (dogs only) you may bring the animal to the Morden Veterinary Clinic on SATURDAY ONLY. Otherwise you must call your local city/town/RM office prior to bringing the animal to the pound.
If you have no after-hour services:
- post the found pet in local community groups on social media
- check for any identification
- if you are unable to hold the animal until the next business day (or it is an emergency) call your local police station or RCMP office (DO NOT CALL 911)
