Pet Microchipping
Never Lose Track of Your Beloved Companion
Losing a pet can be a heart-wrenching experience, and traditional forms of identification, such as collars and tags, may become lost or damaged. Pet Microchipping solves this problem by offering a permanent form of identification beyond the visible. It’s like giving your pet its own high-tech superhero ID!
A microchip is a tiny device, about the size of a grain of rice, that contains a unique identification number that any veterinarian or animal shelter with a microchip reader can scan. The microchip is implanted under your pet’s skin quickly and painlessly. The microchip is permanent and lasts for a lifetime.
The Three Steps to Pet Microchipping
Step 1: Implantation
We use a sterile needle and syringe to implant the microchip under your pet’s skin. The procedure is similar to a vaccination and does not require anesthesia or surgery. Your pet may feel a slight pinch or pressure, but it is over in seconds.
Step 2: Registration
We register your pet’s microchip with a national database that stores your contact information and your pet’s details. You can update your information online anytime if you move or change your phone number or email address.
Step 3: Scanning
If your pet ever gets lost or stolen, anyone who finds them can scan their microchip using a microchip reader. The reader will display the microchip number and the database name where the information is stored. The finder can then contact the database or us to get in touch with you and reunite you with your pet.
