LOST PET RESOURCES
Helping your pet find their way back home
Losing a pet is a very stressful time. These resources can help locate your lost furry friend. People who have found a pet often check these pages, so please post as much information as possible.

My Pet is Microchipped!
If your pet is microchipped you have a greater chance of finding them. Log into your account on your microchip provider's website (or call their 800 number) to report your pet is missing and make sure your chip is registered with your CURRENT contact information.
Many companies also offer distribution of a 'lost' pet form to local organizations. Make sure to inquire about your options with them as these networks are widespread.
All stray animals are scanned for a microchip when arriving at a shelter, animal control, rescue group, or veterinary office. If the pet has a microchip, then contacting the person whose information is registered to that microchip is quick and easy.
Animal Allies urges all pet owners to microchip their companion animal and to keep the contact information updated to expedite lost pet reunions.
If a microchip has old information, we are not able to contact the current owner.
Animal Allies offers microchipping for owned animals.
Call (218) 722-5341, ext. 205 to schedule an appointment at our Adoption Center.
For just 15 minutes and $25 you can take a meaningful step towards ensuring a safe reunion with your pet should they become lost or separated from you. Set up your appointment for a microchip today for future peace of mind.

Current Lost Pets Awaiting Owner Reclaim at Animal Allies
Note: We post all animals that come in as strays on our Facebook page.
If you do not have Facebook, please call 218-722-5341 to see if any of our current strays match your missing pet's description. Our staff will return your call during our regular business hours. Thank you!
Stray pets will be cared for during the state-mandated 5-day stray hold, and then placed into our adoption program if they are not reclaimed.
