Dog Warden Service
The Council has a statutory role in the enforcement of the Dogs (Northern Ireland) Order 1983. The dog control service is responsible for issues including dog licensing, stray dogs, barking dogs and dog attacks. Stray dogs are impounded at the council dog kennels located at Knock Road, Ballymoney. In instances where stray dogs cannot be returned to their owners every effort is made by the service to find the dogs suitable homes.
