Volunteering

*Applications Currently Closed.

All  dogs need exercise and let's face it humans do too.

If you have an hour or two to spare on one or two weekday mornings, you may like to become one of our team of volunteer dog walkers.

We are looking for people that are going to be reliable and come and walk the dogs whatever the weather.

Of course, this goes without saying that you also have to be confident with all breeds of dogs.

History

In common with other with Local Authorities in Scotland, Dundee City Council has experienced problems in the past with large numbers of stray dogs roaming around our streets.

We were fortunate in that we had a facility to house these strays and re-home them where possible.

In the early 80s, the situation had become so bad that the Council took the decision to appoint 2 Dog Wardens as authorised officers under the Dogs Act 1906, assuming responsibility from the police for the collection of stray dogs.
