MICROCHIPPING

Benefits of Microchipping

Microchips are an extremely effective and permanent method of identification that has helped to reunite thousands of lost pets with their families. A microchip is a tiny passive electronic device, the size of a grain of rice. It is implanted beneath a pet's skin between the shoulder blades, and remains there permanently. This procedure is as easy and as painless as a vaccination... Each microchip has a unique number. Veterinarians and animal shelters have scanners for detecting and reading these implanted microchips. If a lost pet is found, and the microchip is scanned, the manufacturer is called, and the owner is immediately contacted.
