One in three pets will become lost at some point in their lives. Without identification, 90 percent of them will never return home. A Microchip could be the difference between heartache and a happy ending. Every dog or cat entering a Houston animal shelter is scanned for the presence of a Microchip. If a lost pet is identified with a Microchip, it can be quickly reunited with its family. Now the Saving Animals' Pet Adoption Center and Home Again Microchips are teaming up to provide permanent identification and rabies vaccinations for Houston dogs & cats. During a special Disaster Preparedness Promotion, a rabies vaccination and tag, along with the Microchip and registration are offered for just $20. WHEN: Every Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and every Sunday from Noon to 4 p.m. No appointments required. Walk-in service. WHERE: Northwest Mall, Northwest Freeway (290) and 18th Street. Entrance D. Phone number (713) 680-0282. The Microchips are the size of a grain of rice. They're inserted under the skin of your pet by a veterinarian. 3 CommentsLeave a comment |
Is there any chance that your much appreciated and needed service will come to the South or Southeast side of Houston? I find it extremely difficult to go to the Northwest side.
Thank you for any consideration.
How wonderful!! Hopefully lots of people will take advantage!!
To Gina - I would suggest calling the adoption center or the microchip business to ask them that question. The article is out here due to khou.com but they would not be able to answer your question.
