IMPORTANT NEWS ABOUT MICROCHIPS
We have heard rumblings for the last few months that Home Safe ID, who are a microchipping company, have closed down (or are closing down). Petaddress is no longer dealing with them.
We have not been able to contact them vis email or phone.
If your dog/pets are registered with them you will need to change to another company, as they will no longer be able to see your details when scanned if your pets are lost etc.
Now is a good time to check where your pet's chip details are held or get your pet microchipped.
To find out where your chip details are held you can go to www.petaddress.com.au
You can change to either Central Animal Records (CAR) for a fee of $12 or to AAR Australasia Animal Registry.

Please check, even if your dog's details are registered with your council, if your dog manages to go out of the council area, the chip will most likely not be traceable.
