ANTELOPE, Calif., Dec. 1, 2008 — Smart-i-tag(TM), LLC announces their Pet Locator(R) products are now available online and can be purchased at http://smartitag.com. Pet Locator(R) Tags by Smart-i-tag(TM) are an inexpensive, easy and convenient way to ensure the safe return of your four-legged family members while protecting your identity and personal information. According to the National Council on Pet Population Study and Policy, less than 2 percent of cats and only 15 to 20 percent of dogs are returned to their owners.
When your pet has a Smart-i-tag(TM) Pet Locator(R) attached you have a 95% better chance of getting your pet back than microchips alone. Smart-i-tags(TM) are designed to simplify the process for the person who finds your missing pet. Unlike microchips, Smart-i-tags(TM) are visible and can be used by anyone, anywhere and at any time.
Microchips are an important part of pet protection, but there are problems using this system alone. Smart-i-tag(TM) Pet Locator(R) resolves all issues with ease and affordability for pet owners.
One large problem is the microchip manufacturer variable. Animal shelters, breeders, vets and humane societies use different types of microchips available on the market. When a lost pet is picked up and taken to an animal shelter or humane society, the professionals there may scan the animal; however, each company that manufactures microchips has its own scanners, and these scanners “read” only their own microchips. In other words, the scanner of one manufacturer may be able to detect the microchip of another manufacturer, but cannot read the information on the chip, or in some cases may not be able to detect there is a chip, leading the shelter staff to believe your pet is not microchipped.
Another problem associated with microchipping is their inherent invisibility to the naked eye and inability to be read by the person who finds your pet. With a Smart-i-tag(TM) Pet Locator(R), pet owners will not need to worry about who finds their lost pet because anyone will be able to see and follow the easy instructions to locate you. Last, but certainly not least, studies have found a correlation between microchipping and malignant tumor growth in animals.
Adding SAFE protection to your pet is a simple process with Smart-i-tag(TM): Once a Smart-i-tag(TM) Pet Locator(R) is purchased, contact information is registered online or over the phone. After registration, simply attach the Pet Locator(R) tag to your pet’s collar. The contact numbers can be changed at any time from anywhere with no additional charge and there are no monthly fees for the Pet Locator(R).
A Smart-i-tag(TM) Pet Locator(R) will direct the person that finds your pet to call the 800-number listed on the tag. Once entering the unique pin number located on the tag, the person will be directly connected to the pet owner with no personal information being compromised … all within 32 seconds. Immediate arrangements can then be made to return the lost pet.
