Microchips/Nails July 10

14TH ANNUAL BHRR Microchipping / Nail Trim / BBQ Fundraising Event with support from Pet Valu Stittsville! 

                                                               Saturday July 10th, 2021 – TENTATIVE DATE!

*Traditionally the largest Microchip Fundraiser Event in Canada!*

NO APPOINTMENTS NECESSARY! JUST DROP ON IN! INDOOR/OUTDOOR Event!

We remain wonderfully overwhelmed and touched by the show of support imparted our way for the BHRR Animals in need of our programs.

The microchips are from 24PetWatch and they meet the requirements of the revised Canadian standard for electronic identification of companion animals. These microchips are also accepted by the CKC. Animal microchips are about the size of a grain of rice and are typically implanted just beneath the skin between the shoulder blades.
*This is NOT a surgical procedure. The animal is awake and feels no more than like a mosquito bite.*

Dr. Zak shall be our over-seeing Vet again in 2020!
This shall be her 16th microchip clinic with us to date!

Every year millions of lost and abandoned animals are taken in by shelters, pounds, humane societies, SPCA’s and rescue organizations. Of these animals only about 15% of dogs and 5% of the cats (estimated numbers) are ever returned to their homes. The primary reason that the statistics are so low is, because the pets are unidentifiable. Microchipping provides the only truly permanent method of identifying your pet(dogs and cats-especially outdoor one’s!) and networking the animal back to their owners. If you want to improve your cat or dog’s chances of getting home; microchipping is your best option.
