Title - Animal Services

The City of London's services related to animal care and control help ensure that citizens with and without pets may enjoy municipal amenities and a high standard of quality of life. The health and safety of all our animals contributes to the health, well-being and liveability of our city.

The City's Animal Services are divided into two main areas:

Animal Welfare Program
 

Designed to enhance the living conditions of animals in our city, the program consists of various approaches to animal welfare -  including cat & dog licensing, animal identification, responsible pet ownership, and providing a second chance for animals that have been abandoned or become stray. 

Animal Care & Control Program
 

With services provided under contract by the London Animal Care Centre (LACC), the Animal Care & Control Program's four main areas of responsibility are:  animal control, by-law enforcement, the Dog Licensing and Cat Identification Program, and shelter (Pound) services for stray animals.
