PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT - Long read, but worth it. Please note, any pet microchipped by All About Animals Rescue is not affected.

Time to check your pet’s microchip registration. It’s easy to do.

Visit the American Animal Hospital Association’s Microchip Registry Lookup tool website. https://www.aaha.org/for-veterinary-professionals/microchip-search/

Enter your pet’s microchip number.

IF YOUR PET IS REGISTERED, THE SITE WILL RETURN WHAT COMPANY THEY’RE REGISTERED WITH. Pro Tip - Good idea to double check the contact information listed for you in the registry. Out of date phone numbers or emails mean the microchip can’t help your pet get back home. Update your contact information with the registry.

IF NO REGISTRY IS FOUND, YOUR PET’S MICROCHIP WON’T HELP YOUR PET. YOU MUST REGISTER THE MICROCHIP.

There are many registries available. Some charge a fee, some are free. It’s a good idea to choose a reliable, stable registry company such as:
HomeAgain https://www.homeagain.com/
PetLink https://www.petlink.net/
AKC Reunite https://www.akcreunite.org
AVID ID PETtrac https://www.avidid.com/pettrac
24Petwatch https://www.24petwatch.com/ (also offers a free choice - only allowing for limited contact information to be associated with pet’s microchip)

Free registries are available. Here are a few:

https://findpet.com/
https://www.mypethealth.com

DON’T KNOW YOUR PET’S MICROCHIP NUMBER? Any veterinary clinic, animal control or shelter can scan your pet for free and provide you with the number. Pro tip – use your phone to take a picture of the microchip number on the scanner. No room for error with what someone writes down.

NEED YOUR PET MICROCHIPPED? Any veterinary clinic can microchip your pet and walk you through registering the microchip.

All About Animals Rescue can microchip your pet anytime during our walk-in wellness hours or during spay/neuter for just $25. We use HomeAgain microchips. Registration is free with free contact updates for life.

We can also scan your pet at no charge should you not know your pet’s microchip number or are unsure if they have been microchipped.

🩷Happy valentines day 🩷

01/21/2025

Today was a very long and very cold day for our team but it’s nothing compared to what these animals are enduring.
We had a lot of wins today like getting this poor tiny innocent dog inside where he can be warm and safe, and for that we are thankful.
We also had some losses today but we will not give up and will be back out again tomorrow to help those that have no voice and cannot speak for themselves.
No dog (or cat) should be left outside in these temperatures.

01/20/2025

Our friend's dog is currently in the emergency hospital due to seizures and unfortunately needs to be kept there and monitored for a few days. We are attempting to raise some funds to help cover the costs as Care Credit is not an option at this time. Give if you can and sharing is free!

01/20/2025

Reminder!

Please bring your animals in. Please. They will not make it outside over the next few days w record low temps.

Please bring them in.

Have you heard about the bird flu?

The death of an Oregon house cat and a pet food recall are raising questions about the ongoing outbreak of bird flu and how people can protect their pets.

"As a general precaution, people should avoid direct contact with wild birds and observe wild birds only from a distance, whenever possible. People should also avoid contact between their pets (e.g., pet birds, dogs and cats) with wild birds. Don't touch sick or dead birds, their f***s or litter, or any surface or water source (e.g., ponds, waterers, buckets, pans, troughs) that might be contaminated with their saliva, f***s, or any other bodily fluids without wearing personal protective equipment (PPE). More information about specific precautions to take for preventing the spread of bird flu viruses between animals and people is available at Prevention and Antiviral Treatment of Bird Flu Viruses in People."
