Microchipping
Microchips are tiny computer chips, about the size of a grain of rice. They are implanted under your pet's skin by a veterinarian using a large bore needle without anesthesia, similar to a simple vaccination. Each microchip carries a registration number that is associated with the owner's name and contact information.

Microchipping does not act as a GPS tracking devise. A shelter, the pound, or a veterinary client can scan a found pet and link the microchip number back to the owner's contact information. It is important to keep your contact information up to date.
​ 

​If you have any questions about microchipping your pet, please feel free to contact our office.
