Universal Microchip Lookup Tool
Homeward Bound Pet is proud to be a participant in the best thing that ever happened for our pets, the Universal Microchip Lookup Tool, an online search engine powered by the American Animal Hospital Association. In the past, when a lost animal was brought to a shelter or veterinary office, they had to make numerous calls trying to locate the information on the pet owner. Often, they didn't know where to call and just gave up. But thanks to AAHA and the Universal Lookup Tool, a microchip is entered once and if it is registered with any of a dozen or so dependable microchip registries, the hotline number for that registry pops up in an instant. One phone call to our 24/7/365 hotline and that pet's owner has been found.
For Pet Owners
We sell individual microchips at affordable prices, and offer you comprehensive recovery services. Before a pet is lost, create a complete pet profile, with a recent photo, on our website. This data can be updated as often as necessary, completely free. Then read our online guide How To Find Your Lost Pet. Here you'll get tested and proven strategies for locating your pet quickly, based on years of data on pet recovery. If your pet is missing, you can print flyers directly from your pet's profile, with a photo and all the pertinent information automatically loading into the flyer. While you are conducting your search, our 24/7 operators are standing by, waiting for a call from the finder.
For Pet Professionals
Veterinarians, shelters, pet breeders and others will enjoy our low, low prices on excellent quality microchips. We offfer even greater discounts on bulk purchases. In addition, we ship a free handheld scanner with your first order of 100 or more microchips. Since a microchipped pet can't find it's way home unless that chip is registered to someone, we also include attractive, easy activation cards with every microchip we sell.
