Returned!

Bennett and his brother, Oakley, were returned by the man who found them even before their microchips came into the rescue story. But, knowing our boys were microchipped made the waiting bearable. We trusted that when Monday morning came and the vet opened that whoever found our dogs would get them scanned and we’d be…

Spooked Chihuahua’s Journey

We went camping for a weekend in a area that was on the edge of a large state forest with our 14yr old long haired Chihuahua named Gizmo. Friday evening someone lit a firework near Gizmo and he freaked out and yanked off his collar. He ran out of sight to the Campground store. Before…

Pistol to Adventure

Willow decided to take off. We live in the country and there are many areas in the woods for a four legged pistol to adventure. When the little rascal goes adventuring he returns. However, I was concerned when he did not return. So, I called PetLink and thank you God for the kind animal loving…

Found Before I Knew She Was Missing

I left for work, around 8:00AM, and forgot to close the back door. By 9:30AM I received a text and call that Frieda was found running the neighborhood. I am so thankful she was not hit or stolen! Thank you, PetLink!

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.
