Pets fill many roles in the lives of their owners. They’re our friends and indeed our little brothers that sometimes show us some special love. Pets like dogs and cats need our attention and care. They need not only to be fed, walked, and trained, their safety must be considered too. You need to love them and always look after their safety. Therefore, it’s imperative to consider purchasing a dog license as part of showing some love and care for your pet.

A Pet’s Ticket Home

One of the best ways to find your lost pet’s way home is to wear it a collar with a valid license tag. Every day, thousands of lost or abandoned dogs and cats end up in animal shelters. They return dirty, tired and scared. Moreover, many of them have collars, but without a license tag. And without a tag, shelter workers have almost no way of knowing who owns the pet.

According to the American Humane Association, about 10 million pets are lost or stolen each year in the United States of America. Over 6 million of these cats and dogs end up in national animal shelters. Sadly, statistics show that only 16% of dogs and about 2% of lost cats (out of 6 million) reunite with their owners.

A license is an effective means of assisting in the safe return of a lost dog.

Registering for a pet license today is as important to the pet owners as it is to the local animal welfare in order to provide pet owners with improved tags, free pet grooming service, and lots of information about pet care in their area.

Unfortunately, compliance with pet licensing requirements is still low in many of the US municipalities due to lack of awareness, pressure, incentives and /or enforcement. Staff are always looking for ways to improve efficiency, compliance and increase revenue wherever possible. Therefore, PetLicense.Online offers its services in pet licensing.

In the market today, we know there are many offers on pet registration software. This makes us acknowledge and respect our competitors. And that is why we analyzed each of them, took all their most valuable, considered all the disadvantages and made our own product. We made our offers to include the benefits to gain from our main allies and competitors.
