<strong>Your</strong> <strong>Pet</strong> <strong>Is</strong> <strong>Missing</strong>?<br />

Contact the <strong>SPA</strong> Right Away<br />

The Eastern Townships <strong>SPA</strong> ID tag is, without a doubt,<br />

the best way to identify your pet and to insure his or her<br />

safety. However, as small as it may be, there is a risk<br />

that your pet loses its ID tag.<br />

That is why it is important to contact the <strong>SPA</strong> as soon as<br />

you notice that your pet is missing. By reporting it right<br />

away, you improve your chances of finding your<br />

companion quickly.<br />

Act quickly! Call us at 819 821-4727.<br />
