 Rose from Calumet City Animal Control submitted a microchip help request to Microchip Hunters. The microchip went to an owner from 2013, but they split up. The ex kept her, but rehomed her in 2019. The chip had never been updated, and the original owner only had a name and outdated phone number, but Microchip Hunters was able to research and find an email that was associated with the daughter.
The daughter replied to the email quickly, and was able to pass along the information for the family that has been loving Sigma the past 6 years! They were so happy to get a call and to learn where she was so they could pick her up! She had been missing for a few months! The message received this morning says it all: "Good morning Jeanette. Sigma was picked up, thanks so much for your help have a great day. Attached is finally a happy ending" I received a beautiful reunion photo from both the owner and Rose, and will be helping the family get the microchip transferred! Thank you, Rose, for sending this to Microchip Hunters. We are so happy to be a part of this reunion! Lost Dogs Illinois #MicrochipHunters www.microchiphelp.com

 Samuel’s cat was found near the library right by his home. He said he is around 15 years old. The Good Samaritan that found him took him to Cincinnati Animal Care (CAC) to check for a chip, and they held onto him while waiting for the owner to be found. They would adopt him if nobody came forward.
CAC sent a text on 8/1, but heard nothjng back, so sent to Microchip Hunters on 8/5. The hold was up 8/6 so a quick search for the family was needed. I was able to discover a new address and phone number for Louis’ family! He lived right by where he was found. Samuel answered the phone and was beyond the moon happy to hear that Louis was ok! “We have been so depressed, we thought he had passed.” I let Samuel know where Louis was, and told him the hold was up the next day. I told him he should call right away even though it was after hours, and leave a message, and if possible get there the next day to pick him up. He said “I would lose my job before leaving him there.” People and their animals have a special bond. Stray holds are short. Please make sure your animals are microchipped, and the information for you is correct and current. It can make all the difference when your pet goes missing. Thank you to CAC for sending this over, the family would have never known where their buddy was. Special thanks for the Good Samaritan who helped get him home! Lost Dog Illinois #MicrochipHunters Www.microchiphelp.com  This dog was found in #Hinckley Ohio with a microchip that wasn't showing any information. It was a chip from Japan, and the rescue in Ohio that took the dog in sent it to Microchip Hunters for help!
Microchip Hunter Deb was able to get information to the database containing the microchip information from a Vet in Japan. She was able to locate a phone number for the owner here in the US and learned the dog was rehomed to the nephew once brought here! They were able to contact the rescue to get the dog home! Lost Dogs Illinois #MicrochipHunters www.microchiphelp.com  Kinsley was taken to Chicago Animal Care and Control by a Good Samaritan that found her! Thank you!!!
When Chicago Animal Care and Control was unable to find owner or implant facility information for this microchip, they submitted to Microchip Hunters! Thank you!!! I (Microchip Hunters) was able to find the 'pet store' that Kinsley came from! It took them a couple of days, but the store was able to find the microchip number and match to her family for me and also provided them my number! Thank you!!! "She is a Yorkie Chon, born September 2021! Photos were sent to me as well; you could see how loved she is!!! Boy were they happy to get this call! Kinsley's family went right away to reclaim her, she stayed for spay, and is now home! Microchip Hunters will be registering the microchip with the family. ***BE SURE TO REGISTER YOUR NEWLY ADOPTED DOG'S MICROCHIP - YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN THEY WILL GO MISSING*** Welcome home, Kinsley! Thanks to all that helped her stay safe and get home!!! Lost Dogs Illinois #MicrochipHunters www.microchiphelp.com  Sabah found this little dog on July 28th running the street. She took him to the vet to scan for a chip, and he had one! The number was disconnected, but she knew his name was Lee and he was 7 years old. She took him to her home, not in the neighborhood found in.
Sabah registered to PetFBI to post to Lost Dogs Georgia, and also had him groomed and checked out by the vet. She hadn't heard from an owner, and submitted the microchip information to Microchip Hunters. I (Microchip Hunter) found that the owner on the microchip had passed away in 2023, so began researching relatives in the area. I found one with an address close to where the dog was listed as found, and left a voicemail, text and email that I found for her, along with trying other relatives. I wasn't getting any replies, and suggested Sabah get flyers up in the area he was found. I received a call 4 days later. Maida, the wife of the owner on the microchip, saw my email - she said she had been crying for a week, and had been looking for him, calling around and said she had flyers up! Maida called late in the evening, and said she doesn't check emails that often but was glad she did! Sabah brought Lee back home to his family yesterday, and they were so happy to see him, I ordered a tag for his collar and will be helping get his microchip information updated. All the contact information is outdated - so important to update any time there is a change! "God bless you we missed him so much. I am so grateful and will forever be grateful to you and Sabah" Welcome home, Lee, you sure were missed, and special thanks to Sabah for keeping Lee safe for the family, taking such great care of him, and for understanding how important it is to reunite dogs to their families! Lost Dogs Illinois #MicrochipHunters microchiphelp.com  Bruno went home to family!
Cincinnati Animal Care (CAC) submitted a microchip yesterday for help reaching Bruno's family! The number wasn't current. Microchip Hunter Valerie worked at connecting with Bruno's family and found the daughter who informed her that her mother had passed away in November, but that her brother has had Bruno since. Valerie provided the information for CAC and Bruno was picked up! He is back home! Welcome home Bruno; Bruno's microchip informatiion will be transferred to the son! Lost Dogs Illinois #MicrochipHunters www.microchiphelp.com  Thank you North Chicago Animal Control for texting a Microchip Number to Microchip Hunters this morning for help getting Goose home!
Microchip Hunters made a call to the owner on the chip, but it was her and her ex boyfriend's dog, and he kept the dog! They lived in North Carolina, and he was in the Navy. She didn't have contact with him any longer. After getting a full name and age for the boyfriend, I was able to find a working number for him!!! He said his wife had texted him earlier that Goose was out, as their door had blown open overnight. He is now at the naval base in North Chicago! She went immediately to animal control and reclaimed Goose! Microchip Hunters worked on helping to get the microchip information transferred to them correctly and also ordered an ID tag for him! "Thank you so, so much" " Welcome home, Goose!!! ***Reunion photo*** Lost Dogs Illinois MicrochipHunters www.microchiphelp.com
