Microchipping is recommended for all pets as a form of permanent ID in the event that they become displaced from their homes. If your pet is lost and is taken to an animal shelter or veterinarian, they will scan the microchip to read the unique ID code. We can then contact the microchip company to retrieve your contact information and reunite you with your pet. We recommend microchipping your pet at the time of their spay or neuter, but it can be done at any time.
