Lost Pet? Here’s How to Search, Report, and Reunite
🐾 How to Effectively Find Lost Pets Using Microchips
No pet owner ever wants to imagine their furry friend going missing. Yet, accidents happen and when they do, having the right tools and information can make all the difference. While collars and GPS trackers offer some help, they are external devices that can be removed, damaged, or lost. A microchip, on the other hand, is embedded inside your pet and stays with them for life.
Why Microchips Are the Most Reliable ID Method
Unlike collars and GPS devices, microchips are:
Implanted under the skin and cannot fall off or be damaged easily
Power-free and work for the pet’s entire lifetime
Traceable through secure databases when registered correctly
While microchips don’t broadcast your pet’s location in real-time, they are still the most precise and secure way to verify identity especially when your pet is found and scanned by a veterinarian.
What to Do If Your Pet Goes Missing
Search nearby hiding spots such as bushes, alleys, or under cars.
Call out their name in a calm, familiar voice.
Notify local veterinary clinics with your pet’s details and microchip number, if available.
Create posters and share on social media with a clear photo and contact info.
What to Do If You Find a Lost Pet
Safely secure the animal or contact animal control.
Bring the pet to a veterinary clinic or animal shelter for microchip scanning.
Use the Report Pet feature on the AnyVet Microchip system.
How to Find Lost Pet Info via Microchip
1. Public Lookup: anyvetmicrochip.com
Anyone who knows a pet’s microchip number can use the public site to look up:
The pet’s name and species
Name and license number of the implanting veterinarian
Name and phone number of the implanting hospital
⚠️ Owner’s name and contact info are NOT shown, in compliance with PDPA (Personal Data Protection Act).
2. Veterinary Access: vet.anyvetmicrochip.com
Veterinarians logged into the secure portal can access:
Owner’s full contact information
Emergency contact (secondary owner)
Animal health and registration history
They can only view this information for pets registered at their hospital.
What If the Pet Was Registered by Another Hospital?
To protect privacy, vets cannot access data from pets registered at other clinics. However, the Report Lost Pet feature allows them to notify the rightful owner without breaching privacy:
✅ How It Works:
Log in to vet.anyvetmicrochip.com
Click Report Pet
Enter the microchip number
Submit the report
The system will instantly send an SMS alert to the pet’s owner, prompting them to contact the hospital without disclosing private data.
Why ICAR-Certified Microchips Matter
Microchips last a lifetime. Choosing one that meets ICAR and ISO 11784/11785 standards ensures:
Compatibility with all global scanners
Secure registration in certified databases
AnyVet Microchip is ICAR-certified (Code 991), with over 600 veterinary hospital partners across Thailand, and includes built-in tools for lost pet reporting and tracking.
Conclusion
Microchipping is not just a tech upgrade it’s a life-saving tool. While it doesn’t replace GPS tracking, its reliability, security, and integration with the AnyVet Microchip system makes it the gold standard for responsible pet ownership in Thailand.
