4 Reasons to Microchip Your Pet
- Only true permanent method of pet identification
- Best chance of your pet returning to you after going missing
- Quick and painless procedure, similar to vaccination
- Lasts for the lifetime of your pet
Of the 4,640 dogs and cats received at the Greenwood County Animal Shelter last year, 2,500 were stray or lost and only 3% had identification.
Make sure cats are in carriers and dogs on leashes. For more information about the microchip clinic, call 864.223.2498 or email humane@gwdhumanesociety.org.
