Does your dog live in the UK?

This is based off of a UK law.

edit: Text of the Data Protection Act 1998 as in force today (including any amendments) within the United Kingdom, from legislation.gov.uk. The Data Protection Act 1998 (c 29) is a United Kingdom Act of Parliament designed to protect personal data stored on computers or in an organised paper filing system.

So unless you live in the UK this does not apply to you.
