Paws & People - Free Dog Microchipping

Free dog microchipping sessions are available through Paws & People, supporting responsible pet ownership and animal welfare across the Fraser Coast.

Microchipping is a simple and effective way to help lost dogs be quickly reunited with their owners. These free sessions provide local dog owners with access to an essential service in a safe, supportive community setting.

Delivered by Fraser Coast Regional Council, sessions are run by experienced professionals who ensure the process is quick, calm, and stress-free for both dogs and their handlers.

What to Know Before You Attend

• Dogs must be on a lead

• Dogs must be safe to handle

• Microchipping is for dogs only

• Drop in anytime during the 1.5-hour block. Stay for a chat and socialise while you wait for your turn.

These sessions are ideal for anyone who has recently welcomed a dog into their home, needs to update identification, or has been unable to access microchipping due to cost or availability.
