The DSPCA is urging pet owners to get their dogs microchipped at their subsidised clinic.
The animal charity recently helped reunite Baya the French Bulldog with her family, after the beloved pup went missing over two years ago in Galway. Baya was found at a busy South Dublin junction and was brought to the DSPCA, where she was correctly identified through her microchip.
The story serves as a stark reminder that families should safeguard their pets through the simple procedure. Microchipping involves inserting a tiny chip, equivalent in size to a grain of rice, between a dog's shoulder blades.
