Microchipping is one of the most effective ways to reunite lost pets with their keepers. However, it is only effective if keepers remember to ensure that their contact details are kept up to date.

​

   It is a legal requirement to have any dog over the age of eight weeks microchipped and to keep your details up-to-date.

   

    How Does Microchipping Work? A tiny microchip is quickly and simply inserted into loose skin at the back of your pet’s neck, which is only the size of a grain of rice. This gives the pet their own unique code.

    The microchip can be scanned and matched to the owner's contact details, which are kept on a database, such as the PetLog database.

    Thousands of pets are lost every year and many are never reunited with their owners - microchipping can help to change that.
