New Microchipping
Details
Here are
the basic facts for dog breeders regarding the new legislation that has become
law this April.
|
ALL puppies must
be registered to the breeder before they go to their new homes with up to
date details, this is an actual law with penalties for doing otherwise.
Breeders have a legal obligation to do this. It is also an
offence to microchip the puppies but leave the chip blank for the new owner
to register online themselves later once in new home. If the puppies
are KC registered the kennel club will automatically send out a pack to the
breeders containing codes to give new owners to enable them to change the
details on the chip online free of charge. If they are
not KC registered the breeder has to register with PetLog Premium (it does
cost to sign up to) and register all of their puppies on there to be given a
transfer code which will be given to the new owner to enable them to change
the details on the chip. |
