New Tag & Website Re-unites Lost Pets Quickly
Alert4 PET PRODUCT NEWS:
Anybody who has lost a pet will remember the feeling of sheer panic and desperation. They will also know that help from as many people as quickly as possible is a priority. A new company Alert4 Limited has taken a fresh approach to this difficult and stressful situation. Embracing modern communication methods, the company has created a reliable, fast and affordable service that uses today's world of instant electronic communication. Several exclusive features have been developed by Alert4 to ensure a lost pet is quickly identified and returned to its owner.

The new service is achieved by linking a unique Alert4Pets Tag with the Alert4Pets website at www.Alert4Pets.com, to produce an interactive facility that is faster and more comprehensive than any other method of tracking a lost pet. Registered owners have access to an on-line Lost a Pet Button. This button sends a series of urgent alert messages to influential people and organisations such as dog wardens, animal shelters and vets in a targeted area. The Lost a Pet Button also instigates alerts to members of the Alert4Pets Pet Alert Squad in the area where the pet was last seen. The Pet Alert Squad is open to all pet lovers, for FREE, by just registering. Members can invite friends and family to join and can post to the Pet Network blog whilst knowing they are there to help if a pet is lost near to them.

Alert4Pets makes use of the best tagging technology available for its unique wrap-a-round Alert4Pets Tag. Each tag displays a nine digit identification code which is unique to that particular pet. The tag is applied like a plaster round a finger to any design or size of collar or harness. As the Alert4Pets Tag fits so securely, there is no chance of it working loose, or the information becoming damaged or illegible. The special transparent layer around the tag forms a protective barrier against damage, moisture and dirt. Using the Activation Key supplied with each Alert4Pets Tag, the pet is easily registered on the system at the company's website www.Alert4Pets.com.

The Standard ID Tag Service available from Alert4Pets allows the 'finder' to make contact with the 'owner'. If a lost pet is found, the finder enters the 9 digit code (from the tag) on the website. The owner then immediately receives an email telling them their pet is found and the details of the finder so they can make contact.

Alert4 When registered for the Super Alert Service the owner of a lost pet is able to log onto the Alert4Pets website and presses the Lost a Pet Button. Immediately a Broadcast Lost Pet Alert is triggered and sent by email to council Dog Wardens (a requirement by law when a dog is missing), Animal Shelters and other registered pet owners in the area. The alert is personalised with a picture and other helpful information for those who may think they have seen the missing pet. Any information about the pet's whereabouts is sent directly to the owner via email or text message. The same group asked to search for a lost pet will automatically receive an email alert when that pet is found. Each lost pet alert has a unique identification code to avoid confusion.

After purchasing an Alert4Pets Tag and registering on the website, all pet owners are able to use the basic Standard ID Tag Service free of charge for the life of the pet. Users can upgrade to a Super Alert Service for a low annual or lifetime fee which brings with it extra features to help return a lost pet quickly. As part of the advanced features, owners can post pictures and videos of their pet on their profile to help with identification.

A FREE 30-day trial of the Super Alert Service is available to all. There are discounts available for upgrades for multiple pets. Additionally Alert4Pets run monthly competitions with prizes of both lifetime and annual upgrades to the Super Alert Service.

Compared to other established forms of pet ID, the Alert4Pets Tag system provides many new and effective features. Information is easily visible on the collar and can be used by anybody via The Internet. The broadcasting of alerts is an exclusive feature of the system, as is advising seekers when pets are found. Owners can store details of any number of pets under one registration, tags can be moved between pets and replaced under one membership.

The NEW Alert4Pets Tag is available through pet stores, other specialist outlets and the company’s website www.Alert4Pets.com (suggested retail price just £2.75). The tag is sold on a display card which includes full user instructions. Further information can be found on-line at www.Alert4Pets.com.
