Placing a microchip on a dog means if it is lost or stolen it is an effective way of reuniting with its rightful owners.

Each microchip is coded with a unique number that is linked to a computer database.

A warden, vet or RSPCA Inspector can scan the dog to trace the owners.

Dogs for chipping must be 12 weeks old or over and accompanied by an adult.
