Paws & Laws |
Always keep a record of your dogs details tucked in
the back of your pedigree form, just in case it gets lost. There are certain
laws which apply to you and your dog. When in a public place, every dog must
wear a collar with their name and address of the owner. You could also consider
electronic tagging with a microchip to help you identify your dog. If you would
like more details, please call your vet.
As the dog’s owner you are responsible if your dog causes an accident or
inflicts any serious damage. You can insure your dog for third party risks as
well as healthcare. Allowing your dog to foul in public areas or footpaths is
not only an offence, but it is dangerous for children and unpleasant for
everyone else. Get used plastic carrying bags to clear up after your dog, or opt
for an Easi-Scoop.
