DOG-owners can get their pet microchipped for free at an event in Wyke today.

The Hub, on Blackstone Avenue, will be open for a Chip my Dog drop-in session from 11am to 3pm.

Dogs can also get their current microchips checked and have a health-check, including free nail-clipping.

Puppies up to the age of six months should be vaccinated, said a spokesman. Proof of vaccination may be asked for. Dogs of all ages are welcome.
