Keeping Your Pets Safe

Did you know one in three pets will become lost during their lifetime? That's millions of lost pets every year! Developed by a veterinarian, the AVID Microchip provides lifetime pet identification that helps protect your pet against loss. When registered, the microchip provides a direct link to you through PETtrac, our pet recovery service. PETtrac reunites thousands of lost pets with their owners every week!

Protect Your Family

The dangers are real, according to The Humane Society of the United States approximately 6 to 8 million pets enter animal shelters every year. These pets become lost or displaced from natural disasters or accidents. What do many of these pets have in common? They have no form of identification.

A lost dog waits for his owner at a local shelterDon't wait until it's too late. Many shelters have limited resources and can only house new arrivals for a short period of time. These facilities receive hundreds of lost pets each week and have to make hard decisions when pets have no form of identification. Shelters do their best to locate owners, but if your pet has no form of identification, there's not much they can do. Discuss the AVID Microchip with your veterinarian today, it could save a life!
