Pet ID Week April 17-23

 

National Pet ID Week always starts April 17, this year it is a Thursday! And it lasts for 7 days. 

Its intent is to raise awareness about the importance of micro-chipping pets and using ID tags to ensure that they will quickly be returned home if lost. 

Alas, only 58% of pets who end up in shelters are registered in microchip databases.
Having a pet chipped is important but one thing that is often forgotten, is that chip records also need to be updated if you move.
Nutmeg has a Chip and its tag, her Rabies Tag and her Dog Licence!

 

Nuts, we are going to add your brand new rabies tag to your necklace!

All that glitters!

 

Nutmeg's collar also has an Apple Air Tag attached to it too! Mom really wants Nutmeg found if she gets lost!

Mom found this terrific infograph with loads to think about pets and why ID is so impawtant!

 

I, Marvelous Marv, am chipped. I got it when I lived in Iran, and Mom had a heck of time registering it when I moved here. My vet in Vancouver was from Iran too and he was excited to meet a fellow country person. He made sure that my chip information got transferred. Mom had no problems when we moved to Midway. AND I have a Driver's Licence!

 

 

We want to share with you a short video of Nutmeg's walk with Alex at Boundary Creek.

They walked up to the falls!
