A microchip can help reunite your pet with your family if the worst case should happen. But it only works as intended when the contact information connected to it is accurate.

National Check the Chip Day is a simple reminder to look up your pet's registration and make updates if needed. Misplaced your pet's microchip number? Give us a call to find out how our staff can help.

Back-to-school season means new schedules, quieter homes, and routines that look a little different. Whether it is a family dog watching the kids get on the bus or a cat whose college student owner just moved out, pets notice these changes.

A little planning goes a long way. Keeping routines consistent, offering enrichment, and easing pets into time alone can help them adjust as the household shifts.
