SUMMARY:Pet Adoptions at George
DESCRIPTION:Come Meet Your Match: A Pet Adoption Event in San Ramon at George\nSunday plans\, sorted. On September 13\, Valley Humane Society is bringing adoptable animals to George\, the pet boutique at City Center Bishop Ranch in San Ramon\, for an afternoon of introductions\, tail wags\, and maybe the start of your next great friendship. \nWhether you’re ready to adopt\, thinking about it\, or simply want to spend a Sunday around some wonderful animals\, you’re invited! Come say hello. \nEvent Details\nWhat: Valley Humane Society pet adoption event\nWhen: Sunday\, September 13\, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.\nWhere: George\, City Center Bishop Ranch\, 6000 Bollinger Canyon Road\, Suite 1106\, San Ramon\, CA 94583 \nWhy Come to a Pet Adoption Event in San Ramon\nThere’s something online listings can’t give you: the moment an animal leans into your hand\, or a pup decides your shoelaces are the best thing they’ve seen all day. Adoption events are where those moments happen. You get to meet animals in person\, talk with our team about who might be the right fit for your home and lifestyle\, and get real answers to your questions on the spot. \nAnd you’ll be doing it in one of the friendliest spots around. George is a beautiful\, welcoming store built for pets and the people who love them\, which makes it the perfect place to imagine what life with a new companion could look like. \nAdopt Local\, Stay Local\nValley Humane Society is a community-based\, independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit. We receive no government funding\, no national funding\, and no tax dollars. Every dollar donated here stays right here\, caring for local animals until they find the homes they deserve. \nWhen we take an animal in\, we commit to it for life. If a home doesn’t work out\, the animal comes back to us. If it takes a while to find the right match\, we love and care for that animal the whole time. Adopting through Valley Humane means joining a community that shows up for animals\, and for each other. \nCan’t Make It Sunday?\nYou can still meet your match. Browse our adoptable animals any time at valleyhumane.org\, take a look at the dogs and cats currently looking for homes\, and reach out whenever you’re ready. \nTo start the adoption process\, call (925) 426-8656 or email info@valleyhumane.org. We’d love to help you find the one. \nWe hope to see you September 13 at George. Bring your questions\, bring your heart\, and let’s find some animals their people.

SUMMARY:National Check the Chip Day
DESCRIPTION:National Check the Chip Day: Give Your Pet Their Best Shot at Coming Home\nEvery August 15\, National Check the Chip Day reminds pet families of one small task that carries a big payoff: making sure your pet’s microchip is registered and up to date. A microchip is one of the most reliable ways to reunite a lost pet with their people\, but it can only do its job when the contact information linked to it is current. \nThis year\, Valley Humane Society is inviting all pet guardians\, including our alumni and adopters\, to take a few minutes anytime during the month of August to double-check their pet’s chip.Come on by our adoption center Tuesdays-Saturdays from 10am-4pm at 3670 Nevada St in Pleasanton for a free scan. It is a simple habit that can make all the difference on the day you hope never comes. As a thank-you for coming in\, we are handing out free QR code ID tags while supplies last. \nWhat Is Check the Chip Day?\nNational Check the Chip Day is an annual observance on August 15\, created to encourage pet owners to confirm two things: that their pet is microchipped\, and that the microchip is registered with accurate\, up-to-date contact information. Getting your pet chipped is only the first step. The chip has to be registered and kept current to actually bring your pet home. \nYour Check the Chip To-Do List for August\nSet aside a few minutes this month and walk through these steps for each pet in your home. \nFirst\, confirm your pet is microchipped. If you adopted from Valley Humane Society\, your pet came home already chipped\, and we can help you find the microchip number. If you are not sure whether your pet has a chip\, most veterinary clinics can scan for one during a routine visit\, or visit Valley Humane and we can scan your pet for free as well. \nSecond\, find your pet’s microchip number and make sure the chip is registered with the chip manufacturer. The registry the manufacturer maintains is the one animal shelters and veterinarians actually search\, so that is the one that counts. \nThird\, check that every detail on file is correct\, especially your phone number\, email\, and home address. If anything has changed since last year\, update it right away. \nFinally\, ask your veterinarian to scan your pet’s microchip at your pet’s annual wellness exam to confirm it is still working and can be read. \nHow to Update Your Pet’s Microchip Registration\nTo update your registration\, you will need your pet’s microchip number. If you have not created an account with the chip’s manufacturer yet\, you will set one up as part of the process. From there\, review every field and correct anything that is outdated. \nNot sure which registry your pet’s chip belongs to? The American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) offers a free universal microchip lookup tool that identifies the right registry for you. Your veterinarian or shelter/rescue where you adopted your pet from can also help you track it down. \nNeed a Microchip? We Can Help\nIf your pet is not chipped yet\, or if you have added a new furry family member\, Valley Humane Society makes it easy to take care of it. You can book a microchip appointment through our low-cost vaccine clinic. \nBook a microchip appointment at our vaccine clinic \nMicrochipping is quick and low-stress. The chip is placed just under the skin between the shoulder blades using a preloaded syringe\, and it feels about the same as a routine vaccine. No surgery or anesthesia required. Once it is in\, remember to register it right away in your name. \nPick Up a Free QR Code ID Tag After Your Pet’s Scan\nAll month long\, we are offering free QR code ID tags to pet guardians and Valley Humane Society alumni who come in for a microchip scan\, while supplies last. A microchip is permanent\, tamper-proof identification\, and a visible ID tag means anyone who finds your pet can reach you right away without a scanner. Together they give your pet the best possible chance of getting home fast. \nMicrochip FAQ\nWhat is a pet microchip? A microchip is a tiny electronic device about the size of a grain of rice\, enclosed in a smooth glass cylinder. It has no battery. When a scanner passes over it\, the scanner’s radio waves activate the chip\, which transmits its unique identification number. \nDoes a microchip track my pet’s location? No. A microchip is not a GPS device and cannot track your pet. It simply stores a unique ID number that a scanner can read. That number links to your contact information in the registry. \nDoes a microchip replace ID tags? No. Microchips and collar tags work best as a team. A collar tag lets anyone who finds your pet contact you immediately\, while the microchip is permanent backup identification in case the collar is lost or removed. Keep your pet’s rabies tag on the collar too. \nIs microchipping safe? Yes. Microchips have an excellent safety record\, and complications are uncommon. The chip is designed to last your pet’s lifetime with no need for replacement. \nWhere can I get my pet microchipped? Book an appointment at our vaccine clinic. Chips should always be implanted by\, or under the supervision of\, a veterinarian/licensed vet tech to make sure they are placed correctly. \nI just adopted a pet. How do I find their microchip number? If you adopted from Valley Humane Society\, reach out and we can help you locate the number so you can register the chip in your name. Any veterinary clinic can also scan your pet at a checkup. \nTake a Few Minutes This Month\nA current microchip registration is one of the kindest\, simplest things you can do for the pet who counts on you. This August\, check the chip\, update your info\, and grab a free QR ID tag from Valley Humane Society. Your future self\, and your pet\, will thank you.

SUMMARY:California Adopt-a-Pet Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Saturday\, June 6\, 2026 for California Adopt-a-Pet Day\, a statewide celebration that opens shelter doors and invites the community to meet the pets ready for their next chapter. Valley Humane Society is proud to take part alongside shelters across California\, working together to help dogs and cats find loving homes right here in the Tri-Valley. \nAdoption fees are waived Saturday\, June 6 only\, at both our adoption center and at our adoption event at the Pleasanton Farmers’ Market! \nLast year\, nearly 5\,000 animals across the state went home with new families during this one-day event. Behind every adoption was a shelter\, a volunteer\, a foster\, and a family who chose to start something new. We hope to add to that number this June\, and we’d love for you to be part of it. \nAt Valley Humane Society\, every adoptable pet has already received the initial medical care they need to thrive at home. Each dog and cat is vaccinated\, spayed/neutered\, and microchipped before adoption day\, so your new companion arrives ready to settle in. Our staff and volunteers spend time with every animal and can share the personality details\, habits\, and quirks that will help you find the right match for your household. \nWalk-ins are welcome on June 6\, and no appointment is needed to meet our adoptable pets. If you’d like to start early or browse the dogs and cats currently in our care\, you can review available dogs and cats and submit an inquiry. \nValley Humane Society is an independent\, community-supported 501(c)(3) animal welfare organization based in Pleasanton\, California. Come spend Saturday with us\, meet a few new friends\, and be part of a statewide story. Call (925) 426-8656 or email info@valleyhumane.org to learn more.
