Every new pet dog will be microchipped under sweeping Government regulations to combat dangerous animals.
Each puppy born and dog sold will have an electronic chip implanted under the skin. Details will then be placed on a national database accessible by police and the RSPCA.
A confidential Whitehall document obtained by The Mail on Sunday says: ‘The compulsory microchipping of dogs on change of ownership would affect anyone breeding dogs for sale or gifting to another person or persons.
This would apply to anyone breeding dogs, whether they are a breeder or a private person whose bitch has a litter, whether planned or not.’
But the proposals last night prompted criticism from MPs and animal experts. They claim that the moves will unfairly penalise the law-abiding owners of Britain’s eight million dogs and will do nothing to tackle the problems posed by dangerous breeds such as pitbulls and Japanese tosas.
Until now, Ministers have been reluctant to introduce compulsory microchipping or licensing amid fears of a backlash from dog owners. The Dogs Trust estimates that around 800,000 puppies are born each year.
‘This will result in a disproportionate burden on the law-abiding who keep dogs and especially those who need dogs for their work such as farmers who keep kennels. They will be stuck with another expense and piece of legislation to obey.’
The document, drawn up by the Department of the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra), says the chips would initially be imprinted with the details of the dog breeder and would be ‘updated by other persons transferring ownership of their pet with the contact details of the new owner when ownership is transferred’.

The best way for Brits to deal with this new fascist dictate is to kill all the bureaucrats. Since you don’t have rifles or pistols, use fire pokers, sticks, bricks or rocks.
Bash in the heads of every cop and bureaucrat in your neighborhood. Find your local politician, drag him out from behind his desk and hang him from the nearest lamppost.
