If you do not activate the chip, no one knows who you are or how to contact you!
A shelter will read the microchip number, but no owner information is attached. Your pet is at risk of being adopted or being euthanized if an owner cannot be found!


If someone finds your lost pet, there’s a good chance they’ll take him or her to a local shelter. That can mean lost time, added stress for your pet, and potential fees when you go to reclaim them.

Setting up a SafePlace helps prevent all of that. If we’re unable to reach you, your designated SafePlace gives us a trusted backup option.

Once you’re a member, log in and go to Emergency Contacts. Add your contact and designate them as a “Safe Place.” Neighbors, nearby friends, or family members make the best choices. If your pet is found, we’ll provide the finder with the location of your nearest Safe Place. Your pet can be safely dropped off there, avoiding the shelter entirely.

You can update or change your Safe Places at any time.


Now you can train your pet from anywhere, at anytime.  Just log in to your Member Dashboard, choose the video you need and train away!!  Free to members and updated frequently so training can be fun.

Simple.  Any type, any brand.  Our Registry is universal!  You do not even need to know the brand name.  You can even move pets from other registries here – so all of your pets can be managed in one place. 

Your pet’s chip is smaller than a grain of rice.  It is bio-compatible and safe.  It is located on the back, deeply under the skin between the shoulder blades.

Most countries require that a pet be microchipped in order to enter that country. The chip number must be 15-digits long and is referred to as an ISO chip (it meets the specifications of the International Standards Organization.)
You can order that chip here in our Store and have your vet install it.
