Although the actual microchip number does not display to the public, you can enable this in order to indicate the animal is microchipped.

Select this option if you want the animal’s web page to show if they have been spayed or neutered.

If the animal is not spayed/neutered, and you have chosen to show the public the animal’s spay/neuter status, a message will be added that the animal will be spay/neutered before adoption.

Enable this option if you want the public to be able to see the animal’s Rescue ID field.

Enable this option if you want the public to see the animal’s euthanasia information.
