Now where can we get the funding for this...... Laughing  Laughing  


Well there is a certain body that was suppose to be promoting dogs, health and welfare and has lots of dosh, what was the name again? I think the initials were something like KC Exclamation  Shocked  Laughing  Laughing
Or maybe you stand a better chance getting funding from the `Dragons Den' Wink Of course the sales pitch would have to include some really cute puppies to soften the hearts and minds and loosen the purse strings Cool  Laughing  Laughing
Or to be really topical I could become an MP and claim it on expenses Exclamation  Laughing  Laughing  Laughing

i've used both tattoos and microchips - and I do prefer tattoos - as my vet says "people are born with scanners" Shocked

Toby our last Weimaraner was tattooed as a pup and his was still legible when we lost him at 12.

When we had our Brittany litter I had them done as puppies, and Rosie's is still legible at almost 13.   I had Bliss, their mum, done at the same time as the pups and had a much better experience than Tracy did - yes she did squeal at the time (Britts have a very indignant squeal if someone offends them anyway) but she very quickly forgave the tattooist and was soon giving her cuddles!

My other 2 Brits have been chipped.   Sherry was done when she was about 2 and her chip is OK, hasn't moved at all.   Ozzy was done about a year ago when he was about 8 months, and his chip is now down his shoulder.   I don't know if it is because he was that bit younger, or because the girl who was doing the chipping wasn't very experienced.

As others have said, I'd be worried about people not finding his chip.

Well, Quill got his tatoo done last Thursday and after the initial yelp, he forgot all about it.  The ink around the inside of his ear has now rubbed off and the tatoo looks good so far.  He also has a chip...just incase.
