ID Your Pet

Including some type of identification on your pet is important! According to the American Humane Association, one in three pets will go missing in their lifetime. During the summer months - when pets are more likely to spend time outdoors enjoying the warmer weather - they are most likely to go missing.

Some ways to ID your pet include: collar, tags, and a microchip. A pet microchip is placed between your pet’s shoulder blades and stores information. Most veterinarian offices and animal shelters have the ability to scan a microchip and read information that will help them be reunited with their owner. If your pet does not have any type of ID on them, be sure to add some type of identification prior to bringing them along with you on your favorite summer activities.
