The Petlog Database
Tracer Advance and Petlog – The Kennel Club Pet Identification Service – have been working in partnership for over 10 years. All Tracer Advance microchips benefit from lifelong registration to Petlog’s national database which supports details of over four million pets and their owners. The database is accessible 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Tracer owners can upgrade to Petlog Premium for a one-off fee of just £10, giving added benefits including unlimited free updates to their contact details.
Petlog is also easy and convenient for your practice. You can register newly microchipped pets through a range of channels; online at tracer-microchips.co.uk, via your Practice Management System or by post in the supplied pre-paid envelopes.
Petlog provides a wide range of services for owners of microchipped animals:
- Petlog is a not for profit organisation, owned by the Kennel Club
- Each year, on average, an additional 500,000 new owners recognise the importance of having their pet permanently identified with a microchip and choose Petlog membership.
- 24 hours a day 365 days a year.
- An average of 90,000 calls are received by Petlog every year from vets, animal wardens, local authorities, rescue centres, police and owners.
- The Petlog 24/7 aftercare service team assisted with the reunification of over 86,000 pets in 2009.
- The Petlog aftercare service team works in partnership with the industry to help assist with special reunification cases - even if a pet were to go missing within hours of being microchipped, Petlog will be able to trace the necessary information to assist reunification.
- Petlog is the only UK member of the European Pet Network. This means if a pet is found in Europe, authorised agencies can help bring owner and pet back together.
