Every year around Britain there are hundreds of incidents of dogs straying or being stolen from their owners.
Dogs that can be easily taken from houses, gardens or who are seen straying, are being stolen. For the lucky few, the pet will turn up in another part of the district or country.For others, its the sad case that these pets are sold, used for illegal coursing, rehomed and are never returned to their loving owners who dearly miss them.
Pet identitags, which are required by law for dogs to wear in public can be lost, removed or become illegible,
Micro chipping is a permanent form of identification. This used in conjunction with identitags ensures your dog is
always identifiable by the appropriate authorities and can be returned to you the owner.
The chip is given and feels like an ordinary regular vaccination. The chip is the size of a grain of rice so it is perfectly safe and comfortable for your pet.
