Free pet microchips are available in Gregg County through Feb 28 at the Longview Animal Care & Adoption Center, helping reunite lost dogs and cats with owners.
Texans prepping for ice storms must protect pets too with warm shelter, brief outdoor time, dry bedding, and unfrozen water to prevent hypothermia and frostbite.
Gladewater installs a public microchip scanner to help reunite lost pets with their owners faster. The free service joins similar scanners in Longview.
