UPDATE MICROCHIPS!
I received a call on Tuesday from a microchip company saying that they found my dog in Placer County. However, it wasn’t Harper.
Booker was a puppy that I fostered in 2010-2011 and then adopted out. His owners never updated his microchip to add their information and when they rehomed him in 2012 or 2013, the new owners didn’t update either.
I waited out the stray hold just in case this 12 year old dog somehow made a run for it, but his owners never came to get him. He’s full of tumors, has some horribly long nails, and looks semi-neglected but is an overall HAPPY boy.
My very best rescue friend, Jamie, pulled him on Friday with the assistance of Sacramento Independent Animal Rescuers (SIAR) and held onto him until we could make it today.
Booker will now live out whatever golden years he has left with us in Reno. 💜
Please make sure your microchip information is always up-to-date! Many people forget to update them with new information or even register them to begin with.
