MICROCHIP IDENTIFICATION.
On Wednesday, June 11, 2001, from 6:00 - 9:00 PM,
the Dog Obedience Club will conduct a Microchip Clinic.
You do not have to be a member of the Club to have your dog tagged in this way.
For $37.00, a veterinarian (Dr. Donna Greybek) will implant the
Home Again microchip, the size of a grain of rice,
in your dog's shoulder.
Most vets, animal rescue organizations and animal research labs have scanners.
If a dog is scanned and has a chip, then a number is displayed,
and a call to the AKC 24-hour registry hot-line will re-unite
the dog with its owner.
Call 908-580-9393 to register for the microchip implant.
Mail a check for $37.00 to S.C.D.O.C.; 534 Howard Ave.; Middlesex, NJ 08846. A few extra microchips will be available for walk-ins, but it is preferable to pre-register just to be sure.
