Today is World Pet Memorial Day to honor the deep bond with pets that have passed away and supports those grieving. It’s also a day to do something kind for those who have recently lost their beloved pet. Pictured is Kona, a demo dog owned by Liz & Doug who passed away 2 weeks ago as well as a picture together of Halo (passed away 10 months ago) and Kona who are now both together at the rainbow bridge. Sadly, many friends with dogs in the dog world have passed away (age/medical) recently as well and it's never easy to say goodbye. May their memories bring you peace. Honor your loved pet by posting a picture of them below. Photo credit to Jerry and Lois Photography.

June is National Microchipping month!

Microchipping your pet is one of the simplest and most effective ways to help them find their way home if they ever get lost. Collars and tags can break, slip off, or become unreadable, but a microchip provides permanent identification that stays with your pet for life.

Every year, thousands of pets end up in shelters without any form of identification. A quick scan by a veterinarian or shelter can reveal a registered microchip and connect lost pets back to their families much faster. In many cases, microchips are the reason pets are reunited.

The process is quick, safe, and about as simple as a routine vaccine. Once implanted, it’s important to keep your contact information updated in the registry so your pet’s chip can do its job if needed.

Microchipping doesn’t replace collars and tags—it adds an extra layer of protection. Even indoor pets can accidentally slip outside during storms, moves, or unexpected situations.

If you haven’t updated your microchip information recently, log in to your account and do so!
