[In-It] Dog's Built-in Recognition Chip Saves Dementia Grandma

An old woman with dementia lost her way and found her family again.

It was thanks to the dog who didn't leave the grandmother's side.

The warm story from Jeju Island and the detailed circumstances are as follows.

On February 18, when there was a strong cold with snow falling every day, 112 reports were received stating that "there is an old woman without shoes in the parking lot."

The Jeju Central District Police Department urgently visited her.

It is said that he did not wear shoes as well as outerwear.

A situation where even simple communication was impossible because of dementia.

The police first took Grandma to the Earth.

I tried fingerprint checks to find my family, but it wasn't easy.

That moment!

The police thought of the dog with her grandmother.

It was a black puppy who kept lingering around without leaving her grandmother even in the harsh weather.

The puppy followed her grandmother to the earth.

The police searched the dog's'built-in recognition chip' through the abandoned dog center in case.

The puppy's name was'Cami', and thanks to'Cami', the grandmother was able to return to the arms of her family.

It is the'built-in recognition chip' that caught my attention while hearing this news.

According to the Animal Protection Act, all dogs over 2 months of age must be registered as an animal.

Animal registration is carried out in two ways, using an'internal recognition chip' (internal microchip) and an'external tag', but I personally do not recommend the external method.

It falls easily and there is a risk of being lost.

In fact, some people take their external dog tags off and steal their dogs.

(It may seem ridiculous, but it is happening in Korea.) Many people ask if their dogs feel pain or even develop tumors when using the built-in chip.

But don't worry about this.

About 10 years ago, at the beginning of the animal registration system pilot project, some Chinese chips caused side effects, but the safety of the embedded microchips that are currently in circulation has been proven.

Animal registration is a legal requirement.

If caught without registration, a penalty of less than 500,000 won will be imposed.

Apart from fines, registration of animals is not annoying.

As a guardian, it's a must.

Isn't there anything that does not report birth after having a child?

The same goes for dogs.

Even if you lose your beloved dog, you can find it relatively easily, and accordingly, the occurrence of abandoned animals decreases.

And in this case, it seems that people who have been lost can be found thanks to the dog that follows the family to the end despite the bitter cold.
