Implement a web based dog licencing system that requires a specific licence for owning and breeding. The system to track every dog, via a record numbered by its microchip number, from birth to death. To include limits such as number of dogs owned, number of times a bitch can be bred.

4. Reduce or eradicate dog fighting
5. Ensure a yearly vet check (minimum) which would identify if a dog is being cruelly treated and/or starved and/or trained to be aggressive.
