hey gemmakins

we've moved house recently and have to re-register the chips on our pets.
my mam works in the vets and she gave me the phone number for the central office which deals with passport and chips.
u'l need your documents handy with the chip numbers etc on. my mam says there might be a small nominal fee.

the number is 0870 6066 751

we havnt done it yet so let me know how you get on.

That is the Kennel Club number for the Petlog register.
If the dog's details are not already registered with them, they will take the details includings the new address.

Sorry forgot to say you can get in touch with them online

www.the-kennel-club.org.uk (click on petlog on the choices listed on the top of the page)

and can change your details that way. They will also make a note of a temporary holiday address in case your pet goes missing whilst away from home.

Petlog is for any animal that is microchipped.
