Animal Welfare Professionals

What program is the best and inexpensive to keep track of Microchips in house?  What chips are mostly used by other rescues?

We use 911 Pet Chips because they come preregistered to our shelter.  They cost about $8.30 per chip and never charge the adopter for registering or making changes - no monthly subscription either.  Use the promo code "nonprofit" to receive this price.

I use a Goggle spreadsheet to enter the chip #, animal name, shelter number, adopter name, phone #, address, date of adoption and cat or dog.  It can be easily sorted into numerical order for easy reference.

24 PetWatch chips register automatically and for free through PetPoint (which is free) Pet owners receive complimentary updates to their contact info for the life of the pet.

24 PetWatch chips also register for free through Chameleon and Clinic HQ.

We use Michaelson Found Animals. It's about $5 per chip ordered in bulk. We use Shelterluv so microchips are automatically updated every night. In the past we used to use the Found Animals Registry which was free. 

Foundanimals.org for chips.

Sheltermanager.com for tracking and automatic registration.
