Love, microchips and wagging tails came to Fairland

What’s more romantic than roses? Making sure your furry Valentine always finds their way home.

This Valentine’s Day, community members from Fairland and beyond gathered in the neighbourhood for a heartwarming mission: keeping pets safe through microchipping, vaccinations, and de-worming.

It was hosted by Beagle Watch and was less about services and more about showing our furry Valentines a little extra love.

As tails wagged and curious sniffs filled the space around him, Beagle Watch’s Andre Aiton summed up the spirit of the day. “When a dog is lost, there’s a lot of trauma to the family. Quick reuniting really does help.”

Such days have been a staple for the security company for years, and each one has been a wagging success that helps keep pets safe.

Everyone was welcome as love for pets has no membership list. This was evident through the few grumpy cats there, making sure every beloved four-legged companion had a better chance of finding their way home.
