Understanding Pet Microchipping

Microchipping isn’t rocket science but pure, uncomplicated technology. The microchip sits comfortably under your pet’s skin, usually between the shoulder blades. It is a quick vaccination — swift, straightforward, and over in minutes. Once implanted, we guide you through registration, ensuring your pet’s chip connects seamlessly to the national pet recovery database. And remember, should you move or change contact details, updating this information is vital.

Benefits of Microchipping

There are several benefits to microchipping, including:

They Never Get Lost: A microchip is a permanent identification solution.
Each Microchip Has a Unique ID: Every chip contains a distinct number, ensuring your pet’s unmistakable identity.
Increased Chances of Reunion: The heartache of a lost pet is immeasurable. But microchipping drastically raises the odds of reuniting with them. With countless pets returned daily due to this technology, vet clinics, police stations, and animal shelters continually endorse and use microchip scans.

Collars and ID tags, though helpful, can sometimes fail us. They might get caught, break, or simply fall off. A microchip, on the other hand, remains with your pet always. This tiny device, no bigger than a grain of rice, embeds securely beneath your pet’s skin.

Does the Pet Microchipping Process Cause Pain?

Our commitment to your pet’s comfort remains unwavering. While some might worry about the process, your pet’s sensation during microchipping compares to a routine blood draw — brief and minimal. Preloaded in a sterilized applicator, the microchip inserts quickly into the skin. While the procedure doesn’t require anesthesia, our trained team ensures your pet stays relaxed and stress-free.

Routine Chip Maintenance: Annual Checks

A microchip is designed to last, but routine checks are beneficial. We advocate for an annual verification during your pet’s regular visit. This guarantees its optimal function and correct position.
