AKC Reunite Automatic Microchip Enrollment Uploads
Shepherd integration with AKC Reunite enables automatic enrollment of your AKC Reunite Microchips with Prepaid Enrollments! Activate AKC Reunite to save time and ensure the pets you microchip are enrolled when they leave your care!
How Does It Work?
AKC Reunite scans Shepherd for AKC Reunite Microchips
AKC Reunite enrolls your clinic's pet records that have a newly added or modified AKC Reunite microchip (starting with 956) around 8:15am and 3:15pm EDT.
If the microchip is not already enrolled, AKC Reunite enrolls the pet patient’s microchip ID to the client aka Pet Owner.
If the microchip is already enrolled, AKC Reunite does not pull any information for chips/pets already enrolled.
Microchip is enrolled
The Pet Owner receives a welcome email from AKC Reunite that provides the pet owner information on how to maintain their pet’s enrollment records
AKC Reunite captures client and patient details when enrolling a microchip:
Pet Information Collected (*required) Pet Name:* Date of Birth:* Species:* Breed:* Gender:* | Owner Information Collected (*required) E-Mail:** First Name:* Middle Name: Last Name:* Complete Mailing Address** (Address, City. State. Zip Code -Must be at least 5 digits)** Country: Primary Phone:** Alternate Phone: ** At least two of the following fields are required: Complete Mailing Address, Phone Number, E-mail. |
AKC Reunite sends error notification emails to the practice and directs the user to update the incorrect information. Once corrected, the enrollment will be reprocessed during the next scan.
