The Lost Dogs Home

One of the many pet related organisations that truly adds value to our community is The Lost Dogs Home based in Melbourne, Australia.   The Lost Dogs Home was founded in 1910 and is Australia’s largest animal shelter, providing services such as animal shelter, animal management, veterinary and pet registration and identification.  

National Pet Register

The National Pet Register is a not-for-profit pet identification service currently run by The Lost Dogs Home:

“The National Pet Register is a national pet identification service for microchips, and free ID tags. Both forms of ID are popular, and all visitors have to do to get a free ID tag is complete our online form and
we’ll send the tags in the mail. Each tag has a unique ID and our 1800 number should it ever become lost. We operate an Australia-wide 24/7 hotline, and reunite hundreds of animals per week.”

So if your cat or dog is yet to be micro-chipped and/or requires an ID tag, I encourage you to visit the National Pet Register website.  With so many pets going missing each year in Australia, taking advantage of this service could alone be the reason for a successful reunion with your pet if he/she goes missing.
