ISBN: 9798196727337 - reinventing the pet microchip: from identification to connected care (6 resultados)

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Every year, millions of pets enter animal shelters as strangers. They arrive without a medical history, without a behavioral record, without any indication of who they are beyond a chip number - if they have one at all. The microchip was supposed to solve this. It didn't.Reinventing the Pet Microchip is the definitive account of why animal identification failed, and how a new generation of connected platforms is finally fulfilling the promise the microchip made forty years ago.Author Stacey L. Lloyd - founder of Artemira Technologies and developer of the PawMates Pro and VetPetz platforms - takes readers inside the fragmentation problem: the splintered registries, the incompatible scanners, the absence of any national standard, and the billions of dollars spent treating animals as if they had no history. Drawing on the parallel history of human health records, international mandatory microchipping programs in the UK, EU, and Australia, and the operational realities of shelters, rescue organizations, and veterinary practices, Lloyd builds an unflinching diagnosis of a system that has failed the animals it was designed to protect.Then she shows what comes next.The connected ecosystem described in this book replaces the chip-as-dead-end with the chip-as-gateway - a lifelong medical and behavioral identity that travels with an animal through every organization in its life. Veterinary visits, shelter intakes, rescue transfers, foster placements, disaster evacuations, and owner changes all become part of a continuous, permissioned record rather than a series of fresh starts. The platforms that make this possible - designed for veterinary practices, shelter networks, rescue coordinators, animal control agencies, and individual owners - are described in depth, from their technical architecture to their real-world workflows to the ethical obligations that govern them.Reinventing the Pet Microchip is for everyone who has watched an animal arrive at intake with no history and wondered how much that absence was about to cost - in time, in money, and in lives. It is a book about infrastructure, but it is also a book about what we owe the animals in our care, and how, for the first time, we have the tools to honor that obligation completely.Key TopicsWhy the microchip system has never worked as intended - and the structural reasons it won't fix itselfWhat mandatory microchipping in the UK, EU, and Australia reveals about what the United States is missingHow connected animal identity works - from chip number to lifelong medical and behavioral recordThe platforms transforming veterinary care, shelter operations, rescue coordination, and municipal animal controlCommunity cats, TNR programs, and the challenge of animals without ownersDisaster response and what Hurricane Katrina revealed about identification failure at scaleData privacy, ethics, and the legal questions raised by lifelong animal recordsThe economic case for connected care - what fragmentation costs and what connectivity savesThe path forward: what veterinarians, shelter directors, rescue organizations, and individual owners can do now This item is printed on demand.
