If You Lost a Pet
If your pet is microchipped, make sure your microchip information is up to date as soon as possible by calling the microchip company or agency where the chip was registered. Shelters and veterinarians scan for a microchip as soon as found animals arrive so they can contact the owner. When you find your pet, be sure to microchip it, if they do not have one and place an animal license tag or ID tag on your pet’s collar. Always keep your contact information with the microchip company up to date.
