HAVE YOU MICROCHIPPED YOUR DOG?
We thought we should remind dog owners that strict new laws introduced in February 2015 make it compulsory for all dogs in England to be microchipped and registered from 6th April 2016.
Support from Dogs Trust (www.dogstrust.org.uk or tel 0207 837 0006), the UK’s largest dog welfare charity, means a free microchip will be available for all unchipped dogs in England.
Failure to comply may cause embarrassment at best and a £500 fine at worst!
See Government Press Release for further information.
VILLAGE LUNCH
A further reminder that the first Village Lunch of the New Year will be this Tuesday 19th January in the Trusty Servant. Meet at 12.30 pm for an opportunity to chat with friends and neighbours. There will be a choice of special meals at £6.50 or you can choose from the main menu.
All welcome!
