Dog Missing From Florida Miraculously Found Two Years Later In OK,
It’s no longer just a trendy fad, but a vital tool for pet safety and well-being. From lost pets to reunite them with their owners, to tracking their health and whereabouts, microchips offer a plethora of benefits that extend beyond the initial adoption process. The microchip itself is a tiny, biocompatible device embedded under the pet’s skin, holding a unique identification number.
Andora’s microchip led to a family in Denmark, Iowa, who had been searching for their lost dog for months. The Denmark family, who had been searching for their beloved Pitbull, Andora, for months, were overjoyed when they received a call from the Oklahoma shelter. The shelter confirmed that Andora was microchipped and had been found by Destiny Druse in Enid, Oklahoma.
