Collar and tag
The easiest way of ensuring the safe return of your dog is to provide your dog with a collar and tag. Under the Control of Dogs Order 1992 every dog while in a public place must wear a collar with the name and address of its owner inscribed on it or on a disc attached to it, Failure to do so could result in prosecution and a fine of up to £2,000.
Micro chipping of dogs
Micro chipping of dogs provides a cheap and effective means of quickly identifying your dog should it become lost. Our Dog Wardens carry scanners with them so they can check to see if a dog has a microchip. The Dog Wardens can also microchip your dog for you to give you that added peace of mind. The cost of this service is currently £15.00 per dog.
