Microchip Safety
Permanent Pet ID
Losing a pet can be one of the most stressful experiences for any pet owner. Even with collars and tags, pets can sometimes slip away and become difficult to locate. That is why permanent identification plays such an important role in their safety.
A microchip for dogs and cats is a tiny electronic chip that is gently implanted just beneath the skin, usually between the shoulder blades. The procedure is quick, safe, and does not require surgery or anesthesia. Once inserted, the chip carries a unique ID number that can be scanned by a vet or shelter to identify your pet and contact you.
