Why Microchip?
A microchip can be the difference between finding your pet, or never seeing them again. One in three pets will become lost at some point during their life. That's a scary statistic. A study published in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, including 53 animal shelters across the U.S., confirmed the high rate of return of microchipped dogs and cats to their families, and the importance of microchip registration. From the study, Only about 22 percent of lost dogs that entered the animal shelters were reunited with their families. However, the return-to-owner rate for microchipped dogs was over 52 percent (a 238 percent increase). Less than 2 percent of lost cats that entered the animal shelters were reunited with their families. The return-to-owner rate for microchipped cats was dramatically higher at over 38 percent (more than 2000 percent better).
Registered microchips give lost pets the best chance of returning home. Heading Home K9 Rescue has teamed up with a certified vet tech to give this service at an affordable rate for families. The cost is $30.
