Microchipping
At SVHS we provide all dog adopters with a free-to-them microchip in their new pet and all cat adopters with an optional microchip in their new pet for an $10.00 charge. The staff then enters the pet's microchip identification number and the owner's contact information into 24/7 PetWatch. If your pet is lost, the microchip and the contact information on their computer site is the best chance for getting your pet home again. So, if you transfer ownership of the pet, you must provide the new owner's contact information to PetWatch.
Whenever an animal clinic or a shelter receives a stray animal, they scan for a microchip. 24-PetWatch provides the contact information that is on file to try to reunite the pet and the owner. We cannot return your pet to you if we cannot contact you! So, please - if your telephone number changes or if the ownership of a chipped pet changes, please remember to update the contact information at 24Hour PetWatch!
UNABLE TO KEEP YOUR PET OR HAVE YOU FOUND A STRAY?
Because we are a no-kill facility, space is limited so you must always call before bringing in any animal. Space is determined by the number of adoptions we do. If you can work with us and keep the animal indoors until we can accommodate the animal, we sure would appreciate it.
A DROP-OFF FEE is required per animal to help defer the cost of caring for the animal and veterinary care.
For more information, please call (850) 971-9904.
