Free microchips
Through January of 2014, free microchips will be available from Regional Animal Services at 2825-A Longley Lane from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday (excluding holidays).
Brode said the goal is to microchip at least 5,000 pets during the campaign. To help reach that goal, Regional Animal Services has also scheduled a series of mobile microchip clinics on a regular basis throughout the next year. Funding for the microchips used in the mobile clinics are provided by Maddie’s Fund®.
Mobile clinics
The next mobile clinic is scheduled for 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. this Saturday, March 16, inside the Petco at 2970 Northtowne Lane in Reno. Another mobile clinic is scheduled for Tuesday, March 19, 12 noon to 4:00 p.m. outside the Scolari’s at 5430 Sun Valley Blvd. in Sun Valley.
Locations and dates for future mobile clinics will be announced at WashoeAnimals.com as information becomes available. Pet owners are asked to bring their dogs properly leashed and their cats in appropriate cat carriers.
