SIGN OUR PETITION AGAINST MICROCHIPPING NOW!

Recently a Trust group in Malta offered dogs a free health check, worth about €300, together with free “Micro-chipping as a safe, and effective way of reuniting lost pets.” Many phoned on radio, asking if dogs implanted with microchips could suffer or become effected with cancer. The reply was NO, but reports one can easily research on the INTERNET show quite a different picture.

Owners kept asking, because in other countries dogs had developed cancerous tumours around the microchip implants, killing some dogs and leaving others terminally ill, ending up having to put to sleep the latter! Besides reports – pathology and autopsy reports from these owners, there has been scientific research carried out about this subject, which suggests microchipping is not safe at all.

What will happen to dog sanctuaries is anybody’s guess. I think they may have to close down their operations and hand on their dogs to the government.
