All Dogs in England Must be Microchipped Before 2016

I have seen a lot of times where the chip has worked for dogs and they were returned to their families. Then nothing is 100% and that's common sense. Plus I don't know if installing the chip causes any animal diseases and that is something esle to think about too. A lot of times, installing a foreign object to the body upsets the immune system. That can cause a number of diseases to dogs, animals or humans.

Playing DA here. Even if the dog did get a disease that resulted in the installation of the chip, he or she may live longer but suffering the stress from being lost.

Then the bottom line is our governments don't need to decide for us. Dog and pet owners make these decisions for them, not our governments. Geez, we are not robots!
