Before Your Dog Goes Missing

If your dog should get lost one day, will you have done everything possible to maximize the chances of its safe return? Most of the actions you can take to give your pet the highest chances of being reunited with you are things that must be done before the dog goes missing, so act now.

Some of the most basic and important steps you can take are:

  • Have your dog licensed.
  • Keep the license tag on your dog's collar at all times.
  • Add another pet ID tag (available from pet stores) to the collar with your contact number engraved on it.
  • Ask your veterinarian to microchip your dog, and register the microchip number with the SPCA.
