Micro chipping and health tests.

I have been meaning to tell you all:
The Kennel Club now says that all dogs that are to go through health checks such as Hip scoring, eye Testing and Elbow scoring must be identified by a micro chip or Tattoo. Something to bear in mind when your next at the vets. It is quite a good idea so there can not be any substitutes for hip scoring and the like, at least this way it will be the correct dog that is tested. Not sure it ever happens in our breed but have heard of it happening in other bigger breeds.
