Bandeath Dog Shelter could soon be replaced to provide better accommodation for both staff and animals.
The Stirling Council-run facility at Bandeath Industrial Estate in Throsk has been housing stray dogs and re-homing unclaimed pets from across the Forth Valley for decades.
By law, stray dogs which have been taken to the kennels may be re–claimed by their owners within seven days. After the seventh day, the dog becomes the property of Stirling Council which will attempt to find it a new home.
