01
A chip with nowhere to point
Implanting a chip and registering it are two separate steps, and no shared registry sits behind the second. A chip can be implanted and never recorded anywhere.

Almost every pet is chipped. Almost none are findable.
A chip only helps if the number leads somewhere. PetRegistry gives every animal one national record — shared by every licensed clinic, shelter and authority.
- 2.4×
- More likely to go home when the chip resolves
- No link
- Between one clinic's records and the next
- One pet
- Held as several records that never reconcile
- No check
- On a change of owner, nothing to verify against
Return-to-owner rates: Lord et al., Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 2009 — 7,700+ stray animals in US shelters. Microchipped dogs went home 52.2% of the time against 21.9% without a chip.
The problem
The data already exists. It just doesn't connect.
Six gaps that sit between a chip number and the animal's owner.
02
One animal, many records
Every system opens its own entry for the same animal, so a single pet becomes several records that never reconcile.
03
Transfers with nothing to check
Nothing connects a change of ownership back to the original owner — so there is no verification step and no audit trail.
04
Import records sit apart
A cat or dog cannot be imported without a chip and the owner's details on file — but that record stays in the import system, out of reach of clinics and shelters.
05
No line between facilities
A shelter with an unmatched chip has no channel that reaches the rest of the network — and no way to search beyond its own database.
06
Registration split by authority
Cats and dogs register with the municipality. CITES species and falcons register with the ministry. Both systems are real; neither can see the other.
The chips work. A chip that resolves more than doubles the chance a dog goes home — the number just has to lead somewhere.
Before / after
One lookup instead of one closed database.
Today
- 01Animal arrives at the shelter.
- 02Chip scanned against one local database.
- 03No match — and nothing links it to the next.
- 04No shared channel to reach the other facilities.
- 05Anything that comes back lives outside the record.
The chip leads nowhere. Each system only sees its own records.
With PetRegistry
- 01Found by a shelter, a clinic or a resident.
- 02Facilities read the chip. Residents scan the collar tag.
- 03Both reach the same record — owner, vaccines, licence.
- 04No match: one alert reaches every licensed facility.
- 05The reunion is written to the record.
Minutes, auditable, one record.
The platform
Three surfaces, one record.
01 · Registry console
One record per animal, not one per clinic.
Search a chip, a tag or a name and get the whole animal on one timeline.
Chip, tag and name lookup
Age, desexed status, condition
Vaccination and licence expiry
Full ownership history
02 · Reunite app
The public becomes the sensor network.
A resident reports a found animal in under a minute — straight into the shelter's queue.
Report found or lost in one flow
Scan a collar tag without signing up
Digital pet passport and reminders
Rewards for verified reunions
03 · Authority controls
Permissions that mirror real authority.
Transfers can be restricted to government facilities, and every action is logged to a named user — a trail every account can read.

How it works
A found animal, from scanner to sofa.
01

02
Look up
One national lookup returns owner, licence and medical history.
03
Alert once
Unregistered? A single broadcast reaches licensed facilities nearby.
04
Log the outcome
The result is written back to the same permanent record.
