Re: Dog ID

I think you have agreed with some of my statements Vicky ie movement and spinal damage and as I said early becasue of these reasons I see no good reason to have a dog chipped at such an early age. I also cannot see how vets who know there is a possibility of spinal damage, chip pups be they docked o...

Re: Dog ID

just seen this new thread from another thread i was commenting on. Shame it wasn't kept on the same thread. I think most of the people on that thread were saying that they kept to the law Vicky.
