Sept. 7, 2017 - Dr. Brian Beale of Gulf Coast Veterinary Specialists gives tips on
how to keep your pets safe from natural disasters. After Hurricane Harvey struck Houston, Dr. Beal and volunteers opened a rescue shelter for lost pets. In addition to checking for owner information through microchips, all the pets received vaccinations and medical examinations. To help keep your pets safe, follow these 5 guidelines:
1. Microchip and register your pets
2. Have collars with the pet's name, owner's name, address, and phone number
3. Keep photos of your pets
4. Note any distinguishing marks
5. Keep complete medical records
