Q: Is microchipping dogs a real safeguard?

By 2016 the UK government will make it compulsory to microchip all dogs. But is this a real safeguard? Will this actually reduce/stop attacks?

jwcjOh I don't think it will change anything about the attacks, but let me tell you that out here in the country we have found far too many stray dogs that had no tags, or any kind of owner information so after posting their pictures in the paper, and putting up signs all around we have had to turn them over to the dog catcher. Now if they had inplants we could have had them read at our local vet, and they ave been wouldn't have gotten the trip to the pound !!!
