I've known that for years. Did I never mention that to you?

Though do you know who enforces that, and what happens if you don't do it? All I know is the bit about the letter, which I was told as a kid when my cousins got a dog, so I didn't get a proper explanation.

Dog Names

I don't think you mentioned it before.

So far as I can tell from the three minutes of googling I did earlier it's when you register the dog. But it might just be if you register it with the Kennel Club. Dogs need to have a chip, but that's about all.

Hopefully someone with more knowledge will chime in!

I have More Knowledge courtesy of a twitter thread I read which said it's not actually a *must* it's just that people look at you funny if you don't, and it's only for purebred dogs anyway.
