Reduced fees for microchipping pets.

Help!!!!
I just KNOW I read somewhere very recently that people on benefits and Senior citizens can get their dogs microchipped for free or at most £9.50 but now I can't find the link.

Anyone know anything about this please?
I'll catch up tomorrow!

    Hi Butterfli

    The Dog's Trust offer this service at roadshows throughout the country. Visit their website and type in microchipping to their search facility for information :)

    I got my puppy microchipped at the vets and it only cost £14.99, which I think is excellent value for money for peace of mind.

    He was chipped with a Virbac chip. They've sent me a user name and password to log onto their website. When I go on holiday, I can log in and enter my parents details as a temporary address. If he goes missing while I'm away, they'll return him to my parents, rather than keep contacting my empty house. I thought that was a good idea.
    Here I go again on my own....
