Adds language affording a secondary contact or the purchaser of a microchip (if the purchaser is a nonprofit organization, animal shelter, animal control facility, pet store, breeder, or veterinary office) the right to reclaim a dog or cat prior to adoption, transfer, or euthanization if the microchipped dog's or cat's primary contact cannot be located or refuses to reclaim the animal.
