MICROCHIPS
Recently we took in a purebred dog that had been found stray with no identification tags. In an effort to find his owner, we had him scanned for a microchip. And Bingo! Yes, the dog has a microchip! BUT GUESS WHAT -- IT WILL NOT HELP HIM AT ALL BECAUSE IT WAS NEVER REGISTERED BY THE OWNER!
When you have a microchip implanted by a vet, or if you get a dog that has a chip in it, you must register yourself as the owner in the database of the company that made the microchip.
The two major manufacturers of microchips are Avid and Home Again. Registration costs about $15 and must be mailed to the company. Your vet does not do this when he puts in the microchip - you must do it yourself separately. Please check and see if your pet has a microchip and register it NOW! And if you have moved, make sure you have notifed the microchip company about your change of address and contact information. Your pet's life could depend on it.
Email us for further information about microchips.

FOSTER HOMES NEEDED
We are looking for foster homes in Ocala for our dogs. Foster care would last for 4 weeks, or less if the dog gets adopted. Foster parents care for a dog, providing food, shelter and love. Pet Network is responsible for any veterinary care, if necessary. The foster parent must be able to bring the dog to adoption on Saturdays.
If you are able to foster a dog for us, please contact Mary;
