Help prevent the heartbreak of lost pets, ask us about the Homeagain Microchip.

Its safe, simple and effective.  Once your pet has the homeagain chip, you simply fill out and send your registration materials, along with a low,one-time lifetime enrollment fee to the AKC Companion Animal Recovery Program.  Its a great feeling to know you've taken the extra step to help prevent the heartbreak of lost pets.

DID YOU KNOW?

• Each year more than 10 million pets are lost
• 50% of dogs and 75% of cats are without collars by the time they arrive at shelters.
• Your pet can be found.  Over 12,000 pets have been returned to their owners through the HomeAgain system.
• The cost of handling the millions of pets lost each year is approaching $1 billion.
• HomeAgain is based on a quick, easy veterinary procedure, brought to you by Schering-Plough Animal Health and supported by the AKC.

A Complete, Unique System For Pet Retrieval

A microchip encased in biocompatible material is placed just under the skin and has an antimigration cap to help prevent movement within the pet's body.  The identification code is unalterable and will last for the life of the pet. The chip is passive- its activated only when read by a compatible scanner- and it's completely safe for puppies, adult dogs and cats six months and over.

Enduring the disappearance of your dog or cat is one of life's painful mysteries.  Wouldn't it be reassuring if your pet could be permanently identified for life, even without a collar?  Now it's possible- with the HomeAgain Microchip Identification System.  Available from your veterinarian, the HomeAgain pet retrieval system involves injecting a small microchip- about the size of a grain of rice- under the skin between the shoulder blades of a dog or cat, in much the same way a vaccine is administered.  Each chip is coded with a unique, 10 digit code registerd with the AKC Companion Animal Recovery program.

When a lost pet arrives at the shelter, a special hand held scanner- similar to the scanners used in supermarkets- is passed over the animal's shoulder blades.  The scanner can read the identification code of the microchip below the skin surface. The shelter can then notify the AKC, which immediately contacts the pet's owner or, if necessary, a veterinarian, relative or other people previously designated by the owner.  Thousands of veterinarians' offices, animal shelters and animal control agencies use the scanners routinely.  They can match your pet's ID and owner information through a central database maintained 24 hours a day, 365 days a year by the AKC.
