This is not real estate related and yet so important! You probably have a pet, dog or cat and when the impossible happen, they get away, how do you plan on bringing your family pet back home?
Well HOME AGAIN is a company that does sell microchip for our dear pets. Yes I am against the whole RFID microchipping thingy for humans, that's another story...
When it comes to our pets, they don't have the ability to find their homes as easily as we humans do. So we decided with my husband when one of our dear dogs was a puppy and dug her way out of the fence that we will microchip her to prevent an other awful night of calling, driving, tears and searching all over town for our little white furry trouble maker.
So now both of our dogs are microchipped, have a collar tag and if anything happen the same poster will be featured on the HomeAgain website and, like myself, thousands of local pet rescuer email inbox immediately. The chip is membership based, only about $16.95/year, it is worth every penny! Make sure to have your veterinarian to register your pet or do it yourself online, we found out later on that they had the chip but our vet didn't register our pups, so always double-check and post an updated photo from time to time helps too!
If you go on the website, you will see many stories and videos of happy reunions.
So act now before your dear pooch escape!
Have a great day!

Tips For PetRescuers
So you're a PetRescuer, now what? Follow these tips to be safe and savvy as you look for lost HomeAgain pets:
|
| • | Read your Lost Pet Alerts and take note of the missing pet's description. |
| • | Keep a lookout in your neighborhood, during your commute, and talk to friends & neighbors. |
| • | If you've seen or found a pet from a Lost Pet Alert, report it to HomeAgain. |
|
What to do when you find a lost pet:
|
| • | Assess the situation carefully. If you feel safe, slowly approach the lost cat or dog. |
| • | If the lost pet is aggressive or otherwise unstable, call a local shelter or animal control for help. |
| • | If you feel safe approaching the pet and it is wearing a collar with ID tags, check for information about the owner and let them know you found their lost pet. |
| • | If the pet is not wearing visible identification but you are able to safely approach the pet, take it to the nearest animal shelter or veterinary clinic to be scanned for a microchip. |
| • | If you are unable to approach the pet or determine the pet's owner, contact your local animal control agency. Animal control can scan the pet for a microchip and get the pet off of the streets, so it doesn't get injured. |
|
Some PetRescuers may decide to shelter a friendly cat or dog until the owner can be contacted or while waiting for the owner to arrive. In those situations, it's important to keep the lost pet separate from your children and pets. Even the friendliest pets may act out in an unfamiliar environment! |
