Collars and tags can fall off. A microchip cannot. It is a tiny chip, about the size of a grain of rice, placed just under the skin between the shoulder blades. When a lost pet is brought to a shelter or veterinary hospital, a quick scan reveals a unique ID number linked to your contact information.
Quick and simple
- Takes just a moment during a regular visit, with no anesthesia needed
- Feels similar to a routine vaccine
- Lasts for your pet's lifetime
- Can be done at the same time as a spay or neuter
Keep your information current
A microchip only works if the registry has your current phone number and address. If you move or change numbers, update your registration right away. We are happy to scan your pet at any visit to make sure the chip is working.
