It is a legal requirement for any dog in a public place to have a collar and tag, and owners can be fined £5,000 if their dog hasn't got them. 

Every tag should have up-to-date details, preferably with a telephone number.

If the finder can contact the owner directly that means they will get their dog back quickly, and if we haven't been involved there will be no charges.

If you live in Oxford, you can order a free tag from us using our online form.
