HomeAgain Pet Recovery Microchips- Bringing Lost Pets and Parents Back Together

If you've ever had a pet go missing, or know someone who has, then you know how upsetting it can be. Not knowing where your pet is, or whether or not it's hurt, is incredibly stressful. Thankfully, HomeAgain Pet Recovery has delivered a system to get your pet safely returned to you that is much more successful than the usual "Missing" posters on telephone poles and/or ads in the local newspaper.

HomeAgain Pet Recovery offers a revolutionary way to recover missing pets through the use of micro-chipping. A small chip (about the size of a grain of rice) is inserted just under the skin of your pet, between the shoulder blades. Your contact information is linked with your pet's unique chip and entered into a national database. Humane societies and shelters can then use a special scanner on your pet, and your contact information will be displayed. This is far more reliable than regular tags which can fall off, rust, or be scratched and dented to the point of illegibility.

If you discover your pet missing, you can call the HomeAgain Pet Recovery hotline to report it, and the agency instantly sends out an email to all relevant facilities within a 25-mile radius of the area your pet was lost in. The company has been performing this service for over a decade, but they have recently added some new services to their repertoire.

HomeAgain now offers 24-hour access to veterinarians that can assist you-or direct to you to someone that can assist you- in emergency cases, regardless of your location. They also keep your pet's medical records on file, and these can be accessed online and printed. This is very convenient for those who take their pets along while travelling, or those who use kennels frequently and need to have a way to quickly access medical history. The information is stored even if you change veterinarians. Another great feature is the ID card that is available-it's a plastic, wallet-sized card with your pet's picture, as well as emergency veterinarian and vaccination information.
