Animal Tracker registration for dogs
Please inform Animal Tracker as soon as possible if your pet goes missing. The best way to do this is by logging into your account and clicking the 'Report Missing' button in your pet's record. Check your contact details are up to date.
If someone has found your pet and enters the microchip number into the search tool on our database, or on another UK compliant microchip database, it will confirm that they are registered to Animal Tracker. Depending on the privacy settings you have selected, either a number of different contact details will be visible or there will be a note for the finder to contact the Animal Tracker team. You will have the option to amend these privacy details enabling the finder of your animal to contact you directly. If the person doing the search has an authorised account with us they will be able to view full details.
The pet's microchip number will be sent to the network of Scanner Angel microchip scanners. If your pet is found and scanned with one of these it will recognise they are listed as missing and will display Animal Tracker's contact number.
Premium Account holders will have access to the following to facilitate a quick reunification with their pet.
If you have a basic account you can choose to upgrade for a one-off fee, which gives you access to these benefits.
If you are not in a position to access your online account please call our 24/7, 365 number 01279 219777. Our customer service team will need to verify all callers before proceeding. Please have your animal's microchip number at hand.
What to do next....

If you are a dog owner whose pet went missing whilst on a walk, retrace the route, calling / whistling for your dog.
Let your neighbours know so they are aware.
Create and distribute missing posters (if you are a Premium customer you can do this via your account) to local shops, gyms, post offices etc.
Contact your pet insurance provider (if applicable), as they may offer financial assistance and advice on missing pets
