Battersea Dogs and Cats Home awill be microchipping dogs in Centrale
Dog owners will be able to get their pets microchipped for free in Centrale this weekend.
Metro Bank has joined forces with Battersea Dogs and Cats Home and will host the microchipping event on Saturday and Sunday between 11am and 3.30pm.
Free advice on responsible dog ownership will also be on offer.
Battersea Dogs and Cats Home is supporting the Government’s announcement from earlier this year that all dogs in England must be microchipped by April 2016.
Dee McIntosh, Director of Communications at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home said: “Many dog owners don’t realise how helpful a chip, the size of a grain of rice, can be.
"Having an owners contact details at hand removes the chance that they may lose their dog"
