Microchipping provides a permanent, inexpensive form of identification that cannot be lost, altered, or intentionally removed. The process is quick and painless and can help ensure a happy reunion.
Microchips are no bigger than a grain of rice and are inserted in the scruff of the pet’s neck. Each microchip has a unique identification number that is never duplicated. Once implanted it can be scanned to find the details of the pet’s home and owner.

Use microchiiping in conjunction with the Kennel Club's Petlog scheme, ensuring that if your pet is lost an authorised person such as an animal warden can use a scanner and locate your details rapidly. Rapid identification will help you get your dog back as quickly as possible. For more details, see The Petlog website.
