Microchipping

Having your pet microchipped is simple and takes just seconds. Each microchip is roughly the same size as a grain of uncooked rice and is injected beneath the skin using a syringe. Because the procedure is not surgical, there is no need for any type of anesthesia. The sensation is similar to receiving a vaccination, and there is no need for any downtime or aftercare. Pets can immediately resume their normal activities after being chipped.

Microchips do not have GPS tracking capabilities, nor do they contain any personal information. Instead, every chip has a unique identification number that is linked to an online account. When you bring your pet to us for microchipping, we will help you set up this account and let you know how to update your contact information if you ever move, get a new phone number, etc.

If your pet ever wanders off and is brought into an animal hospital or shelter, an employee will scan them for a microchip. When a chip is detected, the scanner displays its identification number, which is then used to look up your contact information. As long as the information is correct and up-to-date, you will be reunited with your furry family member.
