A LOST PET IS AT
RISK! Few of us think about
our beloved pet becoming lost. However, it does happen. At
the Humane Society & Pound, several calls are received a week from
owners who have lost their pet. It only takes a door or gate left
open for a second! Many dogs get lost by slipping out of their
collars. It is surprising that over 70% of pets arriving at
shelters are not wearing collars or tags. Unfortunately, if your
pet is lost and ends up in a shelter, (possibly far from your hometown)
and is unidentified, he or she could be put to sleep in accordance with
shelter procedures. Now, there is
a nationwide identification system to help return lost pets quickly to
their families. It's called "HOME AGAIN." It
provides permanent identification by means of a tiny microchip, and a
national database managed by the AKC that links you to this
identification number. Shelters and veterinarians across the
country are equipped with scanners to identify pets, and return them to
their rightful owners. We
recommend the Home Again pet identification and recovery system.
