What the petition asks
We live in a country of animal lovers and wish to do the most for our pets. As dog theft is on the increase, we need to do the very best to return traumatised dogs back to their owners.
Currently there is no law I place for vets to check to see if a dog is microchipped also dog owners to keep vital information up to date.
