Microchip Pet Identification
|
Microchipping has become a very popular and safe way to permanently identify your pet in the unfortunate case that he or she is lost. It involves the placement of a small electronic chip (comparable to the size and shape of a grain of rice) just underneath the skin between the shoulder blades. The microchip is inserted by a needle, and is similar to a regular vaccine injection. If your pet becomes lost and is transported to the Humane Society, Animal Control, or any Veterinary Clinic, staff members will be able to scan your pet for the microchip. The scanner used is similar to a scanner found in the grocery store. A series of numbers is produced, which link to all of your information. You will be contacted to pick up your pet. We advise you to use this system of identification as well as a collar identification system on your pet. |
