101
website
101 is the number to call when you want to contact your local police in England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland – when it's less urgent than a 999 call.
When should I use 101?
You should call 101 to report crime and other concerns that do not require an emergency response. For example, if your car has been stolen, your property has been damaged, you suspect drug use or dealing in your neighbourhood. Or to report a minor traffic collision, give the police information about crime in your area, speak to the police about a general enquiry.
You should always call 999 when it is an emergency, such as when a crime is in progress, someone suspected of a crime is nearby, when there is danger to life or when violence is being used or threatened.

HomeWatch Lost Dogs Division.
This section is to help reunite the owners of animals. Both farm and domestic pets that are reported to us either missing or found in or just beyond the Tattenhall Ward area. Reporting loose farm animals may help avoid needless road collisions. If you have a lost or found animal for local assistance please contact us soonest to spread the word widely, as the alternative should the dog warden become involved may be costly. E-mail contact as in the HomeWatch section, if possible please include a Jpeg photo of the missing or found pet. If you are looking to give a pet a caring home we recommend that you contact www.capricornrescue.org/ their website regularly shows pictures of animals in need of a good caring home. If
you know of other reputable rescue centres you would recommend please get in touch.

abandoned dogs. Photographs of the dogs found in the Cheshire West and Chester area within the last week are shown at www.cheshirewestandchester.gov.uk/residents/pests-pollution-food-safety/animal-welfare/stray-and-abandoned-dogs/stray-dog-photographs.aspx
those not claimed immediately by their owners are taken to private kennels. After seven days if they are left unclaimed they are taken to kennels to be re-homed. The charges for the return of dogs picked up by the dog warden are as follows:
£82.80 on first day plus kennelling fees of £10.80 per additional day.
