The Humane Educational Society joins the ranks of shelters in using facial recognition technology to identify lost dogs and cats. HES now offers the community an additional tool to help lost and adoptable dogs and cats find their forever home.
Now every dog and cat that enters the Humane Educational Society shelter system becomes registered on Finding Rover. Users of Finding Rover can search the shelter and surrounding areas right from their smartphone or computer in efforts to find their missing pet, a neighbor’s missing pet, the family of a found pet, or search for adoptable pets.
Every dog and cat that leaves HES through a reunion or an adoption, can remain protected on Finding Rover when the pet parent registers on Finding Rover with the same email address that the shelter has on file. If that dog or cat ever gets lost, their record will already be in the system, and identifying that pet will be a snap.
Registration of your pet is free. Visit www.FindingRover.com and:
1. Upload a pet’s photo
2. Enter a few details about the pet
3. Enter your name, email address, and zip code
Once pets are registered, they’re protected for life.
“Dogs and cats are beloved family members, and if he or she goes missing, it can be devastating to everyone involved," said John Polimeno, CEO and founder of Finding Rover. "We want to do everything we can to safeguard our pets from being lost forever. Registering on Finding Rover is another step all pet parents should take to further protect their furry family members.”
In addition to helping lost pets find home, Finding Rover also features dogs and cats that are available for adoption.
