      Relieved and anxious, I
      learned first-hand just how
      important it is to have your pet microchipped. Bader,
      without knowing, carried valuable owner information
      with her. The animal shelter was able to scan her chip,
      identify her, and contact me to let me know that she was
      safe and sound. So, if you have pets, please make sure
      you not only maintain their vaccinations, but have them
      microchipped. You will be so grateful you did!
