 Thank you Garrido Stray Rescue Foundation for reaching out to Microchip Hunters when helping a Good Samaritan with a found dog.
The microchip was registered to a family but the numbers and address on file were outdated. Microchip Hunters was able to reach the mother of the family, and received a call within minutes. I shared a photo of Aziza and passed along the contact information for the finder and her daughter, and arrangements were made for pickup! "That's my baby, thank you" Welcome home, Aziza! Microchip Hunters made sure the contact information for the microchip was updated, and an ID tag was ordered for her collar in case she goes on another adventure!

 Thank you to Waukegan Police Animal Control for messaging Microchip Hunters for help getting Oreo home after trying to get information from the chip. It showed 8 different companies and nothing to show who the chip was sold to.
After some further searching, Microchip Hunters was able to find the pet store in Wisconsin that Oreo came from. The store spent some time looking for records with owner information and was able to find it! The family lived in Park City, and I was able to connect with them. They said the dog got out when their sone opened the door for trick or treaters, and they looked all day for him. Oreo was picked up within 20 minutes; we are so thankful for facilities that go the extra mile to find the families of these animals, and for thinking of Microchip Hunters! Welcome home, Oreo Lost Dogs Illinois www.microchiphelp.com Microchip Hunters  This senior dog was found wandering at an apartment complex in South Carolina. His microchip led to an outdated phone number, so the finder submitted a Jotform to Microchip Hunters for help finding Snoopy’s family. The microchip registration was almost 11 years old!
Microchip Hunters began researching and located a family member connected to the chip’s information. After sending a photo, the family member replied, “I know the owner!” — the original owner had rehomed Snoopy to a relative. Soon after, I received a text from the family looking for him. I shared the finder’s information, and they were able to reunite with Snoopy that same evening — he had traveled quite a distance from home! His microchip has now been updated, too. Welcome home, Snoopy! And a big thank you to Gregory for keeping him safe while finding his family.  Angela sent Microchip Hunters a message through Facebook requesting help for a microchip for a cat found in Beach Park. Thank you! The cat was 'hanging out on the finder's porch (Jenn) day and night,' and had a microchip with a phone number attached to the owner, but it wasn't going through. Microchip Hunters was able to connect with a brother who provided his sister's current number! Hobbs had been missing for a year, and she was so happy to get this call! She has since moved to Elgin. "Oh. My. Gosh. YES!!!!! That's my HOBBS!! He's been gone for about a year!! I can't believe you have him!!" I was able to provide Hobb's family with Jenn's number and they connected! Jenn drove Hobbs all the way from Beach Park to Elgin to get him back to his family that had moved and had no car! She also provided food, bowls and a litter box! Thank you so much, Jenn, you are truly special, and Hobbs' family is so grateful! Microchip Hunters was able to help get the chip updated to the family's new address and phone number. "Thank you more than I can express I am indebted to you seriously" Lost Dogs Illinois Microchip Hunters www.microchiphelp.com  Thank you Garrido Stray Rescue Foundation for believing in keeping this family together, and for providing them the help they need to keep them safe and healthy!
Garrido Stray reached out to Microchip Hunters when the family's number and address weren't current for 3 dogs that were let out of a car and found. Microchip Hunters reached a family member by email, who gave Erik the information that his dogs were found. When he called, he told me he was very worried and so happy that they all stayed together. "I'll keep my hopes up and pray that I'll get to see them again." Here is the full story: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1FXrSQ38Em/ As Garrido Stray Rescue Foundation said: "This rescue effort was a true community response.

Happy was brought in to Chicago Animal Care and Control (CACC) as found by a Good Samaritan. He had a rabies tag, and an unregistered microchip that CACC wasn't able to get owner information for. Microchip Hunters was contacted, and able to reach Cook County Animal and Rabies Control who provided the animal hospital the rabies tag was sold to! It took the animal hospital a little while to find the information, but they did and Microchip Hunters was so happy to make this call to the family! Happy's microchip is now registered! Welcome home, Happy Boy!!!  Wilson was found as a stray, and had contact information for the owner and an emergency contact.
Unfortunately, both numbers were disconnected, so Cincinnati Animal Care sent the microchip number to Microchip Hunters for help! Microchip Hunter Jessica was able to find a good number for the alternate contact, and Wilson went home! Welcome home, Wilson, you are loved! His microchip is also updated! Lost Dogs Illinois #MicrochipHunters www.microchiphelp.com  hank you to New Jersey Associated Humane Societies South (AHS) for submitting the Microchip Numbers for these two little dogs when their microchips led nowhere!
Microchip Hunters was able to find the breeder for the Schnauzer, who knew who the dog belonged to! She reached out to see if they were missing Luna, and they called me right away to find out where they were! Their young son was so happy to hear they were found too! AHS emailed "They went home yesterday! Thank you for your help." We couldn't be happier! Microchip Hunters will help get these microchips registered too! Lost Dogs Illinois Microchip Hunters www.microchiphelp.com  “Solomon had been missing for 2 YEARS!!"
Solomon’s microchip wasn’t registered, and Chicago Animal Control reached out to Microchip Hunters for help tracking down information. The microchip was traced to a distributor, who informed Microchip Hunter Amy that it had been sold to Fox College Vet Tech Institute in 2015. Thankfully, they were able to provide details about which Humane Society the dog with this microchip had been sent to, and the Humane Society had the owner’s information! Microchip Hunter Valerie called the owner and left a message. When the owner called back, she was overjoyed: “She was screaming on the phone; she couldn’t believe he’d been found! She’ll be picking him up tomorrow. She adopted him when he was 5 years old.” After two long years, Solomon is finally going home. "I’m just glad you got him back for me; thanks a million, Microchip Hunters. What would we do without you?" Welcome home, sweet Solomon. You were missed! Lost Dogs Illinois www.microchiphelp.com #MicrochipHunters  Cesara's microchip was sent to Microchip Hunters after there was no success reaching the family on the 2 numbers associated to the chip.
Microchip Hunter Pauline was able to connect with the family who was out of town. They sent their son to pick her up, and she is now home! Welcome home, Cesara! You are loved!!! Lost Dogs Illinois #MicrochipHunters www.microchiphelp.com |
