The care team at Lien Animal Clinic is reminding all pet owners in West Seattle that on Sunday, June 3rd they will be hosting a Check the Chip Event, where pet owners are encouraged to check and update the contact information registered with their pet’s microchip or have one inserted into a pet that is not yet protected. Lien Animal Clinic is hosting this event in an effort to ensure more happy endings for lost or stolen pets. This year, with support from HomeAgain, there’s a video reinforcing the importance of registering pet microchips and keeping that information up to date.

“We love stories of pets and their families being reunited after they have been missing for sometimes just a short while or in some cases days,” said Daphney, a team member at Lien. These stories would not have a happy ending, if these pets were never microchipped or if the microchip contained inaccurate or out-of-date information.

Microchips greatly increase the chances that you’ll get your pets back if they become lost or stolen, but a microchip only works if its registration information is accurate.

Our team will be available on Sunday, June 3rd from 2-4 pm:

· Check your pets chip and enrollment status tell the owner what information is contained on the microchip; and

· Microchip pets who are without

· Provide tours of the practice

We will have pizza, beverages and raffle prizes! It’ll be a woofin’ good time, you won’t want to hiss it!
