Greater Likelihood of Reuniting Lost Pets with their Owners

According to PetData.com , approximately 6,000,000 to 8,000,000 dogs and cats are placed in animal shelters annually and 50% to 75% of them are euthanized, generally in three to seven days.

In many communities, the percentage may be as high as 90% of all animals. However, if an animal is licensed and wearing a tag (like the Lost Pet Collar), the animal has nearly a 100% likelihood of being reunited with its owner. Furthermore, some animals only wear a rabies tag which would just have the veterinary clinic information. While the veterinarian is contacted in order to locate the owner of the pet, unfortunately, not all clinics are able to look up rabies tag numbers, especially if they are not computerized.

This is why your pet needs the Lost Pet Collar . If your pet is ever lost, the person who finds your pet will be able to enter the tags ID # into this website and reunite the pet with its owner.
