Ebrill 6ed 2016 - mae’n orfodol i gael microsglodyn i’ch ci ‘Microchipping of Dogs (England) Regulations 2015.’ Yn ogystal, mae angen sicrhau mae’ch manylion corfrestredig wedi’u diweddaru gan gynnwys manylion eich ty a rhif ffon. 

Mae microsglodio’n weithdrefn gyflym lle mae milfeddyg yn rhoi sglodion bach o’dan croen eich ci rhwng ei llafnau ysgwydd. Mae gan bob sglodion ei chod unigryw ei hun ac felly gall eich ci wedyn gael ei sganio a'i gyfateb â'ch manylion. Mae eich manylion personol wedi’u cadw ar bas data unigol. 

Os byddwch yn colli'ch ci neu os caiff ei ddwyn, rydych chi'n fwy tebygol o gael eich hail-aduno oherwydd os yw ci wedi'i ficroglodio gellir ei sganio a'i nodi a'i ddychwelyd i'w berchennog.

Mae bron i 120,000 o gŵn yn cael eu dymchwel neu eu colli bob blwyddyn, ac mae llai na hanner y rheiny yn cael eu haduno gyda'u perchnogion. Mae hynny'n gadael i gynghorau lleol ac elusennau lles anifeiliaid sy'n wynebu bil o £ 57 miliwn i ofalu am yr anifeiliaid anffodus hyn ac ad-gartrefu'r rhain.

Ac mae'n rhaid rhoi bron i 7,000 o gŵn bob blwyddyn oherwydd ni all neb ofalu amdanynt.

Gall yn cost amrywio rhwng llefydd ond gall elusennau a sefydliadau anifeiliaid gynnig microsglodion am ddim a milfeddygon lleol am tua £15, er y gall rhai fod yn rhatach neu'n ddrutach.

The advantages of embedding a microchip in your pet are numerous!

Mae microchips yn cynnwys cod unigryw sydd, pan sganiwyd, yn dod â manylion cyswllt y perchennog o gronfa ddata genedlaethol i fyny.

Mae nifer o elusennau anifeiliaid, megis ‘Dogs Trust’, ‘Battersea Dogs and Cats home’ a’r ‘Blue Cross’, 

ar hyn o bryd yn cynnig cwn microsglodyn am ddim neu ar gyfraddau is ar gyfer y rheini sydd ar incwm isel. 

Bydd arferion milfeddygol preifat yn codi tua £ 20- £ 3

Disadvantages

Like all technologies, there are a few disadvantages. On rare occasions, the chip can travel, so it’s important that the full length and width of the shoulder area be scanned.

Some microchips, such as the Avid chip, cannot be read unless an Avid scanner is used. The technology in the chip prevents it from being read by other scanners. There is a universal scanner that detects most chips, but it is not compatible with technology used in older microchips. For rescue staff, this requires access to several scanners and the ability to scan the dog multiple times. Additionally, most veterinary offices only have one type of scanner so it’s possible that your dog may have a chip that goes undetected.

Bleeding and Discomfort

The most common side effect of microchipping a dog is bleeding at the implant site, and some mild discomfort during the procedure. The discomfort your pet feels will be no worse than that felt during a booster injection as the needle is not much bigger. If you’ve ever seen a dog be fitted with a microchip, you will see that their discomfort is minimal. A little bleeding around the site might also occur, but this can be stopped by applying light pressure.

Infections or Hair Loss

In rare cases, your dog might develop an infection at the implant site, and this can lead to abscesses if left untreated. To help your pet’s implant site to heal properly, keep the area clean and stop him from being too active in the hours following the procedure. Hair loss can occur as a result of the infection, so you should keep an eye on your pet and report any adverse reactions to your vet or implanter.

Microchip Migration

By far the most common side effects of microchipping a dog is microchip migration. Your dog will most likely have their implant placed in the scruff of their neck, or in their shoulder. Implants can occasionally migrate to other parts of the body, and implants have been known to show up in the stomach region. Migration usually happens in the first couple of weeks, before the chip has a chance to settle. SmartChipmicrochips feature a special coating that provides an irregular surface called Parylene C coating. This uses biotechnology to encourage cells to bind to the microchip and keep it in place.
