Dog owners urged to break new microchipping law

Dog owners should consider flouting new laws for mandatory microchipping, according to a specialist who warns the procedure can kill puppies and small breeds.

Fines of up to £500 will be issued from April 6, the deadline for all dogs over the age of eight weeks to have the chips fitted to enable wardens to scan them for the name and address of their owner. However, more than a million of the country’s 8.5 million dogs are still not registered and around three million more owners have failed to update their details after moving house.

Vets, animal charities and shops including the Pets at Home chain, all of whom offer a microchipping service, are braced for a last-minute rush of dog owners to get their pets chipped.

But Richard Allport, a senior vet and owner of the Natural Medicine Centre, said the chip can cause serious health problems for young and small dogs.

Hello! Magazine apologises for 'fabricated' Clooney interview

Hello! Magazine has apologised for running an "exclusive" interview with George Clooney that the actor says was completely fabricated.

Mr Clooney said the interview never took place.

He said in a statement: "The problem is that I have not given an interview to Hello Magazine and the quotes attributed to me are not accurate. In my experience, being misquoted is not unusual but to have an 'exclusive interview' completely fabricated is something new. And a very disturbing trend."
