Sung to the tune of Ghostbusters...
Now I realise that it isn't a legal requirement at the moment to micro-chip dogs, but it really makes sense. If we find a dog that is chipped, we can return it directly to the owners without the need for a stay at the kennels. If a dog is stolen, it is at least traceable, therefore you can report your dog as stolen to the micro-chip data base, and at some point the chances are that the chip will be checked, it will flag up as a stolen dog, and appropriate action will be taken.
It is, in my opinion a "no brainer". If your dog isn't chipped, pop along to any of our PDSA health check days in Sittingbourne, Faversham, or Sheerness. As well as getting a free health check and advice; your dog can be chipped for just £5.00 including full registration.
The dates are as follows:
Sittingbourne, 29 July. Central Avenue.
Faversham, 30 July. Market Street.
Sheerness, 31 July. The Clock Tower.
All times are between 10.00 & 17.00.
"When you lose your dog, in the neighbourhoodErr, yes, we got there in the end, micro-chipping dogs is the subject of this dog blog.
Who you gonna call? The Council"
Isn't it a shame now that tune is playing in my head, all I can think of is a phone directory service.
So try this one to the same tune:
"In case you loose your dog, in the neighbourhood,
Wotcha gonna do? Mic-ro-chip".
