Micro-Chipping
Microchipping is a safe, permanent way to identify your pet. A tiny computer chip, about the size of a grain of rice, is injected by a veterinarian, just under the pet’s skin. The number on the chip is entered into an international computer database. Animal hospitals, shelters and humane societies across the country use microchip scanners to detect the ID number contained on the chip. The database then matches that ID number to your name and the emergency contact numbers that you provide to the registry. Manufacturers of the microchips provide the scanners to hospitals and shelters across the U.S. and Canada. If you move, or if your contact information changes, all you have to do is update your information with the registry.
The procedure for implanting the microchip is routine and does not require anesthesia. It is an injection, similar to getting a vaccination. The microchip will not wear out or need replacement, nor will it migrate under the skin. It is a safe, effective, durable and dependable form of permanent ID.
We cannot stress often enough the importance of ensuring your pet has some form of identity. An identity tag is better than nothing, however, these can easily fall off. Therefore, micro-chipping really is the safest form of ensuring that should your pet be lost, it will have a good chance of coming home. Just bring your dog or cat in during our normal business hours. No appointment necessary.
