Micro Chip Puppies How will this stop

[in a mo]

How will fitting a Micro Chip in Puppies stop atacks by Dogs ,most people who keep fighting dogs for example are already breaking the law ,they are not likley to have this done ,how will this be enforced ,the Council here cannot organise a simple rubbish collection,how will they monitor micro chipping ,I have not seen a Dog Wardens vehicle for about 3 years.
Maybe the next suggestion will be that all Dogs have to go to Doggy hospital to give birth ,then register the birth and celebrate with a Micro-chip supper.
What do my friens here today think.

its a bit like trying to tax the sale of illegal drugs.

....mmm....well if they made it compulsory to have every dog chipped it would allow the wardens to get off their ar33s and check any dog...no chip?...a nice fat on the spot fine to swell the local council coffers.

Dog detector vans will be watching you ...be warned ;-)

Dogs have teeth and on occasion will bite and not only fighting dogs.....maybe they will decide to have all dogs detoothed instead of chipping....nothing surprises me these days.....

its a good idea but will it work ? I dont think so.

[Frank97]

I think it will do as much good as the dangerous dogs act did, ie nothing!

These so-called fighting dogs If out doors should be muzzled at all times,
Wait for it?

TWR, I don't disagree with you really, any dog can bite, so perhaps a 'prevention is better than cure' attitude should be taken. It would be safer all round.

Does the government think that chipping a dangerous dog is going to stop the thing biting? no chance, if the bloody thing had a muzzle on there is no-way the animal will bite " Simple"
