“I just moved to the UK with three rescue pets and learned I had to register their microchips! There's a whole bunch of companies listed on the official government website and due to the high expense of moving country, I was looking for a free one. I found Lost Paws very easy to sign up for, easy to fill in, and I like that you can add photos of the pets and update the info at any time. (This was especially important for me as I might need to change address or vet details a few times as I'm not yet settled at one address.) My only criticism would be that I didn't realise until after I'd gone through the whole process that I can't register a pet as missing unless I pay to buy a collar tag for them. There are so many things to think about when moving country and I hadn't realised there were potentially hidden costs even with services like this.”
“Really easy to register dogs and it's free! The option to buy ID tags is an added bonus as I want to give my pets every chance of being found if they were ever lost.”
“Signed up to Lost Paws very quickly and easily. Staff at the company wewre very helpful. On hearing that the system was free I tried to make a donation but was informed it was not necessary - very impressed so far.”
“My new puppy was registered with Petlog by her breeder but when I emailed them to update ownership details they acknowledged my message but never got back to me, so I lost confidence in their attitude and registered her microchip with Lost Paws, who came straight back to me and they don't charge for registration. Hope we never have to search for her but they responded quickly to my first contact.”
“Hi, so far so good. I haven't received my registration details yet so can't do a full review.
A lot better than Petlog who I'm trying to get away from anyway.”
“Of the many providers of dog registration we viewed Lost Paws seemed most transparent (know hidden surprises half way through the process) or over harvesting of irrelevant data.”
“The service I received from Lost Paws was excellent. I had an issue transferring ownership and Stewart resolved it for me with above and beyond customer service. It was so nice to speak on the phone too. Highly recommend in all ways.”
