National Microchipping Month is held annually, with animal welfare groups, veterinary practices and local authorities all over the UK holding chipping clinics in a bid to make the public more aware of how a simple chip can be the difference between being reunited with your pet and never seeing them again.
The UK is now home to approximately 23 million pet animals, of which dogs account for 8 million, thus I believe National Microchipping Month is an extremely important way to educate the public about the benefits of microchipping.
Given that the average parliamentary constituency is home to approximately 35,600 pets I am encouraging and supporting this campaign in Edinburgh West.
