It's National Check the Chip Day!
Did you know that a microchip is only as helpful as the information connected to it? Even if your pet is microchipped, outdated contact information can make it difficult to reunite you if they ever get lost.
Take just a few minutes today to:
Confirm your pet is microchipped
Update your phone number, address, and emergency contacts
Make sure your registration is current
A collar and ID tag are important, but they can fall off. A registered microchip is a permanent form of identification that can help bring your furry family member home.
Not sure if your pet has a microchip or if it's still working? Stop by your veterinarian, a local animal shelter, or animal control facility, they can quickly scan your pet for a microchip, often at no cost.
