asal Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 (edited) I always knew it was for Dogs, but did not know this until today. I remember reading somewhere people are asking for a register to be set up to register their horses microchip, name and details, owner and address details? I was just filling out the application to enter one of my horses in next years Sydney Royal. One of the conditions of entering is your horse MUST be microchippped AND registered in the RAS animal Register, Otherwise known as AAR It only costs $14 and apparently the register is accessible Australia wide. You can register the microchip, animals name, birth date, owner's name and address for any or all of the following animals ....dog, cat, horse, alpaca, bird, camel, cow, dingo, donkey, ferret, flying fox, fox, goat, guinea pig, hare, koala, lion, llama, marsupial, mice and rats, monkey, penguin, pig, possum, rabbit, reptile, sheep, snake, squirrel, sundry, tiger, turtle, unknown, wombat. https://www.rasnsw.com.au/animal-registry/pet-owners/ Edited November 27, 2019 by asal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogsfevr Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 If the animal leaves NSW on that register the chip details do not show up & has to be re registered on a registry that is Aussie wide. One of the pains of purchasing a dog from NSW when you live in another state ,most people don't know this I would query to be only registered on the database as out of state horses wont be on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asal Posted November 29, 2019 Author Share Posted November 29, 2019 (edited) I thought from this page it means they are accessed by both Victoria and Qld at the least? As well the very name, Australasian would appear to indicate Australia wide? Think I will give them a call on monday and find out "' Australasian Animal Registry Why AAR Why register with AAR?

Rebanne Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 I can't follow you asal. I've had dogs with AAR for several years and they are Australia wide. No false advertising there. If you are referring to Dogsfevr's comment " If the animal leaves NSW on that register the chip details do not show up & has to be re registered on a registry that is Aussie wide." She is talking about the NSW register which I think is CAR which is a bit confusing seeing as how the rest of Australia already had CAR = Central Animal Records first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the pains of purchasing a dog from NSW when you live in another state ,most people don't know this I would query to be only registered on the database as out of state horses wont be on it this is the cause of my confusion, I specifically put the link to AAR and was talking solely about AAR and this was immediately below my original post So I could only think she was referring to AAR Edited December 1, 2019 by asal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
