If a dog was found on a Public Highway without a collar, any form of ID, had not been microchiped and the Dog Warden and Police had been informed how should it be followed up ? How many times does it have to happen before they are likely to prosecute if at all ?

Thanks

this guy as very good at a talk we went on in nov.

How can you confirm ownership if the dog has no ID?  That's a complicated one.  My guess is not soon enough.

My dog was microchipped when he went walkies but the dressing down I got from the Police inspector was enough to make me hang my head in shame!  (and righly so!).

Teri - nothing to do with this, but was looking at oooooooold Collie pedigrees yesterday and came across the Glenturret affix. Is it an old family one, or just being recycled?

M.

it was my gordon setter name in 1990 bred by lorrine granger/brown she had the affix but she was moving away and ask if i would like to take in on which i did in my and my husband and son name,only fcr and swd are registed under glenturret with me,

could you send it bye email to me at glenturret@btopenworld.com so i can have a look

thank you
terri

I'd suggest that ensuring it goes straight into the police kennels where they'll have to pay to get it back (or they do round here, anyway) is normally the quickest route to either making people get their act together or letting the dog go to rescue where it will get a more careful home before it's squashed. :D

What I want to know is when or if people will be prosecuted :)

I suspect it is hardly ever done :rolleyes:

Oh poop! you shouldve emailed me at work I could have collared soemone for an answer (Having drinks with the 'Landsharks' Handlers tommorrow lunch so will ask then if you dont hear before & text you it might not make much sense though!! )

Thanks HG ! ;)
