Free microchipping from Dogs’ Trust
This follows the success of previous roadshows when uptake by local dog owners has been the highest in Northern Ireland.
To date almost 1,000 dogs have been microchipped at the roadshows.

Over the past year Council has seen many benefits of microchipping, in particular, the speed at which we have been able to reunite owners with pets which have gone missing.
The roadshow will be visiting the Borough from Tuesday 30th October to Friday 2nd November. Owners will be able to get their dog microchipped and registered free of charge thus potentially saving up to £30. The whole process takes less than five minutes and Dogs Trust staff are on hand to give advice.
The roadshow will be visiting various locations throughout the Borough on the following dates;
