Microchipping
We microchip and register all of our foster dogs with the AKCCAR program (American Kennel Club Companion Animal Recovery).
The AKCCAR program offers unlimited changes made to the account and also has a lifetime enrollment, so no annual fees. The best part is that the original registration fees have been prepaid by us.
The chips are registered to our rescue. Once you adopt we will add you as a contact and, per the adoption agreement, when you have a change of address or phone number, you will need to contact us to report the change and we will get the information changed on the microchip.
To order a new ID tag or collar, check the AKC website and let us know which tag or collar you prefer and we will be in touch with the appropriate fees for the order.
If your adopted dog should ever become lost, here are the steps to take to report it
