Why Microchip Your Pet?

Did you know that nearly one in three pets will become lost during their lives? While a collar with ID tags is helpful, it can easily be lost or taken off. A microchip implant is a permanent, reliable, and inexpensive way to find lost pets and ensure you are reunited.

Microchipping is a simple process that can be done during a routine office exam. The microchip is contained in a biocompatible capsule smaller than a grain of rice that is non-toxic, hypoallergenic, and completely safe. The chip is rated for 25 years, meaning it never needs to be replaced during your pet’s lifetime. The likelihood of a lost pet being reunited with their family is greatly increased if the pet has a microchip with up-to-date contact information. Studies show that 90% of microchipped pets are returned to their families.

At our clinic, we have successfully located the families of nearly 100% of lost pets that have a microchip and are brought to us for a scan. Learn more about this life-saving procedure.
