There’s no place like home for a lost pet!
1 in 3 pets will become lost at some point during their lives, but there are easy steps to take to get them home quicker.
Ways To Help Your Pet Return Home Quickly
Microchipping
Microchipping is a proven way to successfully reunite with your lost pet, which gives vet offices and shelters the ability to call you and notify you of your pet’s location.
San Diego Humane Society offers microchipping services for $25 each. Schedule your appointment online. If you have recently moved or changed phone numbers, be sure to update your pet’s microchip information.
Licensing
If you have a dog, a current license can help shelters better identify your pet and reduce reclaim fees.
Collar and Current Tag
Make sure your pet is wearing a secure collar with an ID tag that has your current contact information.
Other Tools
- Keep current photos of your pets on your phone, computer, etc., in case you need to make lost flyers or file a report.
- Register your dog on Petco Love Lost a facial recognition app to help quickly reunite lost pets with their owners.
