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.  Call us today about making arrangements to have your pet protected with Home Again.
