Some of you told us that you had concerns about dog fouling and dog behaviour in our ward spend survey, so we approached the Community Wardens to see how much it would cost to hold an event which provided education for dog owners

The City Council thought this a great idea and suggested the event could include a dog chipping day. Following this we contacted the Board Member and he agreed to allocate council spend to this event

Street Wardens have already held a community dog day in other areas to promote the responsibilities of dog ownership.  The last community dog day was attended by Oxford City Council’s Dog Warden, a vet providing free advice of a variety of issues and various stalls provided by organisations.

Free micro chipping will be provided to the first  dogs whose owners contact the Street Wardens and book an appointment before the event. Chipping will also be offered on the day at a discounted rate. We are trying to find a good venue for this and will post up details very soon!
