For example, the laws of the United Kingdom, Israel, and New Zealand require dogs to be implanted with microchips; Australia requires cats and dogs to be implanted with microchips within 12 weeks of birth; Japan promulgated a bill in June 2019 that requires cats and dogs to be implanted with microchips. Compulsory chip implantation, etc.
This technology was originally initiated by the World Kennel Club (IKU) with the purpose of maintaining the pedigree of purebred dogs. With the rapid development of China's pet industry in recent years, in order to put China's purebred dog breeding on an international and standardized development track, and thus ensure the fundamental interests of association members, IKU China implements the IKU "Purebred Dog Breeding Registration Management Method" , register purebred dogs in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. All purebred dogs bred in IKU certified kennels can apply for injection of electronic chips with their birth certificates as a unique global identity number. , use the identity number to apply for the "Purebred Dog Pedigree Certificate".

In fact, the pet chip is not a high-tech thing. To put it bluntly, it is an integrated circuit that uses passive radio frequency identification and micro-power integration. Technology, a micro electronic chip made through a special packaging process. The chip relies on the signal sent by the identifier to generate an induced current, which can send the information stored in the chip and read the relevant information through the identifier.
The diameter of the chip is about 2 mm and the length is 8-12 mm. It is slightly larger than a grain of rice and has a service life of 15-20 years. It is also passive, non-toxic, anti-gravity, anti-free, and anti-extrusion. It needs to be injected into the back of the pet's neck through a special syringe, because the skin in this area is loose and nerveless. One injection will be effective for life.
After the injection, the dog will have a unique and independent 15-digit identity code. At the same time, the chip will also store information including the dog owner’s name, contact information, dog name, dog breed and other information in the backend of the intranet system. , this information needs to be scanned by a specific device and compared with the system before it can be identified, and cannot be operated by unauthorized general personnel.

Once the dog is lost, the owner can It can be found in time according to the positioning, which not only protects pet owners from property losses, but also reduces the chance of stray dogs and alleviates social pressure;
2. Establish a dog electronic file based on the chip number, and the pet While the hospital records dog immunity information, the backend system will simultaneously upload it to the animal management and epidemic prevention department for filing. Dog owners can receive reminders when vaccination is needed every year to avoid delays in dog vaccination due to forgetting the time; < br />3.
