Findefix
Findefix, the pet register of the German Animal Welfare Association ( spelling : FINDEFIX ) is a free animal register maintained by the German Animal Welfare Association. The German Animal Welfare Association has been helping to find lost pets since 1981. As a non-profit organization, the German Animal Welfare Association and thus Findefix are not profit-oriented. In addition to TASSO, the Federal Veterinary Association names Findefix as a possibility for pet owners to register their animal free of charge in order to identify it and to be able to find the owner.
Registration
An animal identification is required for registration with Findefix . The owner can register his animal free of charge via the veterinary practice , the Findefix website or by post using a registration form, stating data such as species , breed , name, date of birth, gender and special physical characteristics. In the case of dogs, cats and ferrets, their EU ID number and the data of the pet owner are also recorded for making contact. The type of identification including the numbering is also saved. Registration with several providers is possible.
The animal owners receive a written confirmation. Dog owners receive a sticker for the collar with the number of the service telephone and a six-digit code under which the dog is listed in the register as an additional help in finding the dog.
