All dogs in England to get microchips by 2016:
"Dog owners who refuse to fit Fido with a microchip may someday find themselves
fetching a hefty fine, the British government said Wednesday.
All dogs in England will have to be fitted with microchips by 2016, authorities said,
meaning that canines across the country will be chasing cars with a tiny circuit
embedded in the back of their necks.
Britain's Environment Department said that the chips would help reunite owners
with lost or stolen pets, promote animal welfare and take the pressure off animal
shelters."
