Microchip for life
Posted 12th May 2009 Having a pet stolen or go missing is a heart-wrenching experience for any owner. But by having your pets microchipped, you can ensure that if your missing pets are found they will be returned to you. Deciding to have a pet is an important decision and one that results in a commitment to that pet for its entire life. Part of being a responsible pet owner is identifying your dog permanently, for example by microchipping. As National Microchipping Month 2009 approaches in June, Petlog - the largest Microchip Pet reunification service in the UK - would like to assure pet owners that just as a pet is for life, the microchip and registration on Petlog is also for life. Managed by the Kennel Club, Petlog prides itself on its customer service and its reliability. With over 3.7 million pets and owners registered, last year Petlog handled nearly 100,000 calls relating to lost and found pets and reunited many animals with their owners. Petlog understands just how important a pet’s safety is to its owner and has provisions in place to ensure, that regardless of any changes in the market place, they will be there for you and your pet. All pet owners need to do once their pets have been chipped is ensure contact details are kept up to date, which can be done by calling 0870 606 6751. National Microchipping Month is a campaign that encourages and promotes responsible pet ownership through microchipping as the preferred method of permanent pet identification. The best way to get involved is by getting your pet microchipped at our surgery. See our website link for more details
