Hilda continues to fight on! We cannot thank the folks at Elanco Pet Health enough - and extra kudos to Maria V - for dropping everything to get us an overnight shipment of parvovirus monoclonal antibody treatment on dry ice. We are excited to help Hilda with this new product, as its the first and only of its kind, and studies show it drastically improves outcomes for infected puppies.

We believe Hilda deserves the best chance possible!

We are in the process of helping this little one fight parvo. Staff has nick-named her Hilda - "battle maid" - because she has quite a fight ahead of her! We are going to do our absolute best to make sure she recovers, and when that happens, we will need a willing foster and/or adoptee.

*Take Note - Hilda will need intensive care for a while, she won't be available immediately. We DO check references on these applications - filling out the entire form is imperative!

We know robo calls are a problem, but many applicants we call never contact us back; please make sure your cell phone is set to accept unknown numbers or program us into your phone. :)

Every year we hear it: "I got to the boarding facility on Saturday morning, and I forgot to bring my vaccine certificates!" :( It's even caused a few people to miss a flight or travel plans!

If you're a current client with an Apple or Android/Google smart phone, download the PetDesk app today and register with the *same email address you have on file with us* to view your pet's most recent vaccines at any time!

This sweet male Labrador cross is 17 weeks old and recovering from Parvo virus. We are seeking foster help/new home for him as he continues to progress but will still need some care over the next few months. Like many average puppies, he needs some socialization as he improves and to work on his resource guarding manners, but he has potential to be the bestest boy!

If you are interested in working with us to offer him a temporary or permanent home, please fill out the application here: https://form.jotform.com/233125884074054

SaveThisLife microchip company has permanently closed. Many pets on the Iron Range have this brand of microchip. Even though the company has closed, the microchips already in place are still physically operational and should scan normally with a microchip reader.

The problem is that the STL database that links microchip numbers to an owner's contact info no longer exists.

It is extremely important that if your pet has a STL microchip already, ***you should re-register that number with a different provider so your owner information is associated with your pet's unique microchip number.***

There are many good microchip companies to choose from for re-registering! At this time, we are recommending PetLink Lifetime Registration because of their dependability and low cost point. See attached photo of multiple options.

------
"How do I know where my pet's microchip came from?"

Look up any microchip number at https://www.aaha.org/for-veterinary-professionals/microchip-search/

This database tells you who manufactured your pet's microchip.

Microchip numbers starting with 9910 may be from SaveThisLife.

---

"How do I find my pet's microchip number?"

Microchip numbers can usually be found on a health or vaccine certificate, on the PetDesk app under 'Chips and Tags', or in your pet's medical record. If you ever need a microchip verified, we will happily scan your pet for free (just give us a call so we can have a tech handy to do it).
