How to change microchip ownership if I can't reach previous owner?

Question

Idk if vets know about these things but I haven't changed over Marleys microchip details to me and I've lost the number I tried emailing the previous owner but she's not replying I don't have her number and Marley loves to wander and get lost I'm worried one day I won't find him and I'll never get him back becuz I'm not the registered owner is there a way I can get her details from the microchip and contact her? I can't go to her house she's too far away. Pet's info: Dog | Chihuahua | Male | unneutered | 10 months and 4 days old

Yes sure. Just take Marley to your local vet and scan the microchip. Once you have the number you can have her contact details (your vet can call her) and then change details on the microchip to your ones.
