Right Around the Corner

Jett is home safe and sound this morning thanks to PetLink. This is the first time in 6 years he has ever gotten out of our yard. He only made it around the corner and someone called the pound and he was picked up. His microchip was scanned and PetLink put us in touch with…

Saved Again!

Trooper is an escape artist! I rescued him from a shelter in Corpus Christi, TX. He was running the streets when the shelter found him and still continues to do so. I returned home from a day with my grandchildren & as usual he came to greet me in the garage. He has learned that…

Roam, if you want to…

We recently moved (like a week before he escaped) and have a shorter fence than we had before. I know it has been a stressful time for Rommel with boxes and movers and strange people coming in and out to hook up cable, alarms etc. Rommel was outside for maybe 2 minutes in our fenced…

An End of Summer Escape

As I was grilling on my deck, my 3lb Chihuahua, Bella, was enjoying the last leg of summer by running and playing in my fenced in back yard. After a bit I realized she hadn’t come up in a while, which means she inevitably crawled under the fence again to go explore the neighborhood, like…

A Gateway Out

We are having construction done on our house and our dogs are mainly indoor dogs. We check the gate every day after the workers leave to make sure we can let the dogs out safely. On Sunday, we were getting ready to leave. We went to let the dogs in and realized they were gone!!…

Benefits of Microchipping Your Pet 

Microchipping your pet has several benefits. Microchips are permanent – after they are implanted, your dog or cat will never need to have it removed or replaced. Microchips do not use any power source or connectivity, so they will always be able to be scanned under any conditions. Microchips are inexpensive and easy to implant into your pet by a veterinarian. The procedure is also swift and generally painless. 

Unfortunately, it is very common for a lost pet to be found without a name tag on their collar. This often leads to pets being placed in shelters, hoping their owner will find them. Unlike tags and collars, microchips cannot fall out, break, get lost, etc. No matter what your pet does or where it goes, the microchip will stay safely implanted under its skin. When a pet has a microchip, it can be scanned by a veterinarian or animal shelter, regardless of the condition the pet is in. Microchips are the quickest and easiest way to identify lost animals and return them to their owners.

What Happens When Your Pet Has Been Found & Reported 

When a PetLink chip is scanned in a found pet, the owner gets notified immediately. To get in touch as quickly as possible, the registered owner will receive, texts, phone calls, and emails from PetLink right away. Once PetLink gets connected with the pet owner, arrangements can be made to return the pet safely back to its family.

Giving You Peace of Mind

We understand how important pets are to their owners– many consider their animals as members of their family. Naturally, pet owners worry about their pet’s safety and well-being. Microchipping your pet is one of the easiest and most essential steps you can take to keep your animal safe. 

PetLink significantly reduces the risk of permanently losing a pet, providing our members with peace of mind knowing we will assist in bringing their lost pets home. We encourage you to read our microchip success stories, which highlight how microchipping not only alleviates owners’ worries but also provides comfort to pets. A microchip registered at PetLink ensures lost pets are quickly reunited with their families, avoiding prolonged stress in shelters and offering great relief for both pets and their owners.
