"New dog holders (who have never had a dogs registered in ANIS [predecessor to Amicus]) will have to be registered with the [office of] control of inhabitants of their commune of residence. In concrete terms, this means that their personal data will be introduced in Amicus under the 'Data of Persons' field by administrative staff.
"Once the recording is done, the new holder goes with his dog at his veterinarian practitioners. The confirmation of registration of the data holder's data should be presented by it to the veterinarian practitioner so that the latter can identify the dog and save it in the Amicus database on the corresponding holder's data mask."
