It’s not a scam!

I was traveling in Colorado with my family and went to the grocery store with my husband. My daughter stayed at the unit with her family and they decided to go out and get hot chocolate from the hotel lobby. I got two texts from PetLink saying my dog was “found”. Because we were traveling,…

Basil’s First Solo Adventure

Thank goodness for Petlink and observant neighbors. Basil decided to break out of our never opened gate as we were watching the Ravens game. We did not even know he was missing when we received a “spam call”. It was not a spam, but Petlink notifying us that someone found Basil. We were quickly reunited….

Found in less than 2 hours!

We had left the back door open while cooking dinner, and Violet decided to go explore, which she usually does not do. She usually just wants to be around us at all times.  When we realized she wasn’t in the house, we immediately started combing the neighborhood.  I received a text from PetLink saying that…

Reunited with Winnie

Winnie took off after a herd of deer and disappeared.  A Good Samaritan got her as she was heading into traffic. They used her tag to contact PetLink who contacted us.  We are so grateful to everyone involved in getting our baby back to us!

Benefits of Microchipping Your Pet 

Microchipping your pet has several benefits. Microchips are permanent – after they are implanted, your dog or cat will never need to have it removed or replaced. Microchips do not use any power source or connectivity, so they will always be able to be scanned under any conditions. Microchips are inexpensive and easy to implant into your pet by a veterinarian. The procedure is also swift and generally painless. 

Unfortunately, it is very common for a lost pet to be found without a name tag on their collar. This often leads to pets being placed in shelters, hoping their owner will find them. Unlike tags and collars, microchips cannot fall out, break, get lost, etc. No matter what your pet does or where it goes, the microchip will stay safely implanted under its skin. When a pet has a microchip, it can be scanned by a veterinarian or animal shelter, regardless of the condition the pet is in. Microchips are the quickest and easiest way to identify lost animals and return them to their owners.

What Happens When Your Pet Has Been Found & Reported 

When a PetLink chip is scanned in a found pet, the owner gets notified immediately. To get in touch as quickly as possible, the registered owner will receive, texts, phone calls, and emails from PetLink right away. Once PetLink gets connected with the pet owner, arrangements can be made to return the pet safely back to its family.

Giving You Peace of Mind

We understand how important pets are to their owners– many consider their animals as members of their family. Naturally, pet owners worry about their pet’s safety and well-being. Microchipping your pet is one of the easiest and most essential steps you can take to keep your animal safe. 

PetLink significantly reduces the risk of permanently losing a pet, providing our members with peace of mind knowing we will assist in bringing their lost pets home. We encourage you to read our microchip success stories, which highlight how microchipping not only alleviates owners’ worries but also provides comfort to pets. A microchip registered at PetLink ensures lost pets are quickly reunited with their families, avoiding prolonged stress in shelters and offering great relief for both pets and their owners.
