Dogs at Large

The Peterborough Humane Society has been contracted by the Municipality of Trent Lakes to provide animal control and pound services.

Keep Your Information up to Date

We'll make every attempt to locate an owner and return a lost dog to its home. To help us with this process, please ensure that all identification tags are kept up to date. Remember, a dog must be licensed and you will be considered liable.

Poop and Scoop

You must pick up after your dog when they go to the washroom on municipal or private property. You must not leave without picking up the waste.
