Rehoming
If you are looking for a dog as a pet, then the Council’s Animal Control Section may have the perfect canine pal for you.
Every year about 250 dogs are successfully re-homed from the kennels. Most of the animals which are found new homes have been brought to the kennels by the owners because they are no longer able to look after them.
Prospective new owners are assessed to ensure they are responsible people able to give the animals the attention they deserve.
A charge is made to cover kennel costs.
From July 2012 all dogs rehomed from Brown Street Kennels will be micro chipped
Microchipping of dogs
From the 6th April 2016 it will be compulsory for all dogs over 8 weeks old in Scotland to microchipped under The Microchipping of Dogs (Scotland) Regulations 2016. Brown Street Kennels have trained personnel who are able to microchip your dog, the current cost for this service is £20.00 inc VAT. Further information about the new Regulations can be found on the Scottish Government website.
