$1 Microchips Return for National Pet Identification Month

According to the National Council on Pet Population Study and Policy (NCPPSP), less than 2 percent of lost cats and only 15 to 20 percent of lost dogs are returned to their owners. This is a sad statistic, but it’s true. Your dog and cat cannot tell us their name, address or phone number- that is without your help!

Talbot Humane wants to increase the chances of reunited lost pets and owners.  One safe and effective way to provide identification is through having your pet microchipped.  In recognition of Pet Identification Week which is the 3rd week of April each year, Talbot Humane will be offering microchipping of your dog, cat or ferret for only $1 for the entire month of April. This includes the registration of your chip and an identification tag.

Even if your cat doesn’t go outside, or your dog is always on a leash, accidents happen. Make sure all of your pets are properly identified so they can get home to you in the event of an unforeseen emergency.

To make an appointment, please call 410-822-0107 during office hours. Appointments for chipping are generally scheduled between noon-4P Monday-Saturday.

An Evening with Melanie Kaplan author of “Lab Dog”

When journalist Melanie Kaplan fosters beagle Hammy after his release from a research lab, she becomes curious about his past and the broader world of animal research. She and Hammy embark on a journey – meeting researchers, activists, ethicists, and innovators. Along the way, she finds thoughtful humans on all sides of the debate, explores promising nonanimal testing developments, and uncovers Hammy’s story. Lab Dog offers hope and a nuanced look at our relationship with a species we both love and exploit.

In conversation with Patty Quimby, Executive Director of Talbot Humane, and Craig Fuller, columnist for The Talbot Spy. Q&A and book signing to follow.

Tickets: $25 (fees not included)

Bookhounds of St. Michaels will have copies for sale at the event
