Pet Identification<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

The number one safety measure<\/p>\n

Keep your pet’s microchip identification information and other data up to date, and renew your pets’ images as they age. Pets grow older very quickly so much so that an image is out of date very quickly.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ animation=”animation bottom-to-top”][vc_single_image image=”10186″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”” el_class=”lost_pets_icon”][vc_column_text css=””]\n

Suspicous Behaviour<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

Strangers asking a lot of questions about your pet are not always pet lovers.<\/p>\n

Never give away information to someone you have just met and don\u2019t let them read your pet\u2019s tag, if it is not QR coded.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ animation=”animation bottom-to-top”][vc_single_image image=”10188″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”” el_class=”lost_pets_icon”][vc_column_text css=””]\n

Unattended Dogs<\/span><\/b><\/h2>\n

A prime target for thieves, so never leave your dog tied up outside a shop, even for a minute, that\u2019s all the time it takes to steal your pet.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”top”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ animation=”animation bottom-to-top”][vc_empty_space height=”50px”][vc_single_image image=”10181″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”” el_class=”lost_pets_icon”][vc_column_text css=””]\n

Your Transport <\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

Never leave your pet alone in a car or van unless you can keep them in sight. If possible leave one of the windows slightly open so that\u00a0 air can circulate in the car if stationary. In the summer heat stroke can kill your pet very quickly if the vehicle is left unattended and the windows are closed.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ animation=”animation bottom-to-top”][vc_single_image image=”10180″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”” el_class=”lost_pets_icon”][vc_column_text css=””]\n

Your Home<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

Keep external doors closed and where possible make sure the perimeter of your property is secure. Any escape route is an easy way out for an inquisitive pet. Escaping from a property is the highest cause of loss of a pet.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ animation=”animation bottom-to-top”][vc_single_image image=”10182″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”” el_class=”lost_pets_icon”][vc_column_text css=””]\n

Training<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

It is easier said than done, but a well trained dog is less likely to go to strangers. The return and heel command is the holy grail of training, but if that is not possible do keep them on a lead when in a busy public place.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
