January 29th a woman came into the clinic with a dog she found running on the street in San Gabriel. We scanned for a microchip and found a chip but it was unregistered. Contacting the manufacturer we traced the chip to the spay clinic that inserted it. We asked them for information and they checked their records and tried contacting the owner of record, They received no response from the owners. We traced the email to a photo studio and tried contacting the owners directly. They ignored us until we visited the studio in person. They told our staff they did not want the dog any more and had apparently just opened the gate and let her out on the street.

If you know anyone interested in a very well-behaved young lap dog, please contact us or have them contact us.

The scariest holiday of the year is coming up - not Halloween, the Fourth of July! Due to loud fireworks, more dogs go missing on July 4th than any other day. Microchips are an amazing recovery tool, but unfortunately, because of yearly fees and confusing platforms, over 50% of microchips are unregistered, which is like having an un-engraved ID tag on your collar.

We've partnered with Fi to offer free for life microchip registrations and updates to all - and when you register via the following form, you will be entered to win a Fi GPS collar and one year subscription, the perfect pairing to a microchip! With a Fi GPS collar, you can track your dog in real time and have extra peace of mind - not to mention track their steps and exercise!

Register or reregister your microchip at this link to keep your pup safe and win a Fi collar:

FAQ:

Can I register my chip with Fi even though it is registered elsewhere? Yes! When your chip is searched in the universal database petmicrochiplookup.org, both registrations will show up, but your Fi registration shows as the most up to date and you will never be charged. Your old registration can stay in there, but you can keep your Fi registration up to date for free.

Why do I need a GPS collar if I have a microchip? Microchips are NOT GPS - in order to find your pup via a microchip, someone has to find your dog, bring them to a vet to have them scanned, look up your information, and contact you - that's why the registration is so important!
