The Humane Society of Sedona (HSS) welcomes lost pets from the City of Sedona, provides them with safe shelter and compassionate care, and works to reunite them with their owners or help them find a new home if the owners cannot be located.
A microchip provides secure, reliable, and permanent identification, which greatly increases the likelihood that your pet, if lost, will be returned home to you. A microchip only does its job if it is registered with up-to-date contact information in a pet recovery database.
Tips For Finding Your Lost Pet
