PET IDENTIFICATION - Pet ID

Our aim is to spread the message of the importance of pet identification and be part of the Kennel Club's long term aim of promoting responsible dog ownership.

Microchipping ensures that should a dog be found straying, it can easily be reunited with its owner in the minimum time thus ensuring less stress to both the animal and the owner.

The speed of reunification is increased even more for Petlog Plus customers who can activate a lost pet alert through the use of SMS text which automatically alerts Dog Wardens, Veterinary Surgeons, rescue centres and authorised Agents such as myself within a 30 mile radius of where their pet was lost, thus guaranteeing even faster reunification with their pet.

How does a microchip help find a lost pet

If the worst happens and a pet is lost or strays, the microchip in your pet can be scanned and read by those authorised and you can be contacted. This service is available 24 hours a day.

Remember, however, for this to happen you must keep your contact details up to date on the Petlog database.

How does it work

When someone first registers with Petlog, detailed information is gathered and recorded about the pet and owner.

Petlog is able to include 3 contact telephone numbers and an E-Mail address as well as home address details. Information on whether the pet is neutered, if it has a tattoo, distinctive features and essential veterinary information is also recorded. Therefore, when an authorised agent, such as a vet, scans the pet, they will be able not only to contact the owner at any time of day or night but have an understanding of the pets health and if it has been injured in any way.
