Sioux Falls Humane Society Offering Microchipping Clinic

The Fourth of July is coming up quickly and as humans, we love everything about it, the food, the pageantry, and the fireworks. Your pets, on the other hand, are not big fans of the crackles, pops, and booms.

Almost one in five pets goes missing after being scared by fireworks. That is why it is a good idea to have your pets microchipped. Should they ever get lost the hard process of finding them could be a bit easier.

According to Dakota News Now, the Sioux Falls Area Humane Society is offering you the chance to micro-chip your pets this Thursday, June 20. They are having a microchipping clinic from 4 to 6 PM, but they encourage people to start lining up at 3:45 PM.
