Pet owners are urged on this day to have a microchip implanted in their pets to serve as identification purposes if the animal gets lost. It also is a good date to ensure the chip is working properly and to maintain current contact information.
Veterinarians and animal shelters can urge people to keep their pet's microchip registration information correct during Check the Chip Day. It's also a prime marketing opportunity for anyone in animal welfare, healthcare, pet supplies, grooming, and more.
