Updating your dogs microchip details

All dogs that are sold in Queensland must be micro-chipped. Microchips give dogs an electronic identification number. The chip is detected by radio scanners which can help locate your dog if they are lost. It is important to keep your dog’s microchip details up to date with your current contact information.
The Australasian Animal Registry (AAR)
Most dogs are registered with the Australasian Animal Registry (AAR). The Australasian Animal Registry (AAR) was established in 1989. A AR is the largest not-for-profit and most comprehensive animal registration and recovery service in Australasia.
AAR maintains records for over 1.5 million animals from across Australia and New Zealand, including dogs, cats, birds, horses, zoo animals and even ferrets.
Microchipping your dog isn’t enough. You need to register the microchip and your contact details on a national database so your dog’s home can be found.
Wouldn’t you want your pet’s home details listed on the most reliable animal registry database in Australia? It is the cheapest insurance you’ll ever buy.
You can register your dog online with the AAR for AUD$8
