We are writing to inform you of an important update regarding the microchips we have used in our clinic. As you may be aware, our hospital had been utilizing "Save This Life" microchips for quite some time. Unfortunately, the company that manufactures these microchips has unexpectedly shut down without prior notice.
Please know that the microchips themselves are universal and there are no concerns regarding their quality or safety. The only change is that the company will no longer be supporting these specific microchips, which means that we will no longer be able to register new chips or access their database directly.
To ensure your pet’s microchip remains registered, we are pleased to offer the following solutions:
Free Pet Chip Registry: You can register your pet’s microchip at www.freepetchipregistry.com, a free and trusted registry connected to the AAHA Universal Pet Microchip Lookup Tool.
PetLink Registration: Alternatively, you can register your pet with PetLink for just $9.99 using the discount code VEDCO. To do this, simply visit www.petlink.net or call 1-877-PETLINK (738-5465).
If you are unsure about your pet’s chip number, we invite you to visit our clinic, and we will gladly scan your pet’s chip for you with a universal reader at no cost.
While the company behind “Save This Life” microchips is no longer operational, rest assured that the microchips themselves are still fully functional, and we recommend you register them with one of the alternative databases mentioned above. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We are here to help and ensure your pet’s safety.
