Lost Pets FAQ's
My pet is missing. What’s the first thing I should do?
Submit a service request to report your missing pet. Provide details like your contact info, the pet’s name, breed, color, size, and whether they were wearing a collar or have a tattoo.
Where are lost pets taken if found by by-law or a resident?
Stray pets found in Winkler are often taken to the Morden Vet Clinic for impoundment. Contacting the city promptly increases your chances of locating your pet before it's transferred or rehomed.
Should I contact the Morden Vet Clinic Directly?
It is best to contact the City of Winkler first. You are required to pay a Impoundment fee before the pound can release the dog to you.
Should I post online?
Yes! Post a clear photo and description on social media or local groups.
My pet is licensed with the City. Does that help?
Yes! If your pet is licensed, City staff can use the ID number on the tag to contact you directly if your pet is found.
