Losing your dog is one of the most upsetting and stressful experiences for any dog owner.
Every dog has the potential to stray or be stolen. We believe that there are three easy steps to remember to give yourself the best chance of being reunited with your pooch should the worse happen:
La Società Protettiva degli Animali del Marocco has included in the Animal Welfare Bill to make it a legal requirement that any dog in a public place must wear a collar with the name and address (including postcode) of the owner engraved or written on it, or engraved on a tag. Over the past five years, approximately 5.000 dogs have gone missing from homes and gardens in Morocco.
We have also included in the Animal Welfare Bill to make it compulsory for every dog to have an up-to-date microchip.
A microchip is a small electronic chip, around the size of a grain of rice, which is implanted under the dog’s skin and contains a unique number that can be read by a scanner. The dog owner’s contact details relating to each number will be logged on a central database, so should the dog ever go missing or be stolen it can be scanned by the authorities or veterinarians and returned to his owner swiftly and safely.
Contact your local vet for more information.

Every year, in Morocco, thousands of stray dogs are unable to be reunited with their owners because they don’t wear a tag and chip or the details are not up to date. So, if you move to a new house or change your phone number, make updating the details on your dog’s tag and chip a number one priority. It must be also a legal requirement to keep these details up to date. If an owner’s details are not correct he must face a fine.
It should be simple to update the details for a dog’s microchip: online, by telephone, or by post, depending on which database your chip is registered to. Charges for updating microchip details should be cheap or free.
