Who do you contact to tell them your dog has passed away and hes been chipped?

To notify the appropriate authorities about the passing of your dog and the presence of a microchip, you may need to contact the following entities:

1. Veterinarian:

- If your dog was under the care of a veterinarian, they should be informed about the passing.

- They can update your dog's records and assist with any necessary paperwork or services related to the microchip.

2. Microchip Company:

- Contact the company that registered your dog's microchip.

- They usually maintain a database with information on microchipped pets.

- Provide them with your dog's microchip number and inform them of your dog's passing.

3. Local Animal Control Agency or Pet Registry:

- Some cities or states require pet owners to register their animals, including microchipping.

- Contact your local animal control agency or pet registry and notify them about your dog's passing.

4. Pet Insurance Company (if applicable):

- If your dog was covered by pet insurance, you should also notify the insurance company.

- They may need the necessary documentation, such as the veterinarian's report, to process any relevant claims.

5. Pet Cemetery or Crematory (if applicable):

- If you choose to have your dog's remains handled by a pet cemetery or crematory, inform them about the presence of a microchip.

- They may need to ensure the microchip is properly removed or accounted for during the cremation or burial process.

Remember to keep copies of all relevant documents, such as your dog's microchip registration certificate and the veterinarian's report, for future reference.
