The Best Chance for
a Happy Reunion

A lost companion is every pet owner’s biggest fear.
While collars and tags are important, they can break or get lost.

A microchip provides a permanent, reliable form of identification that can’t be misplaced. It’s a simple, modern solution that gives your four-legged friend the best possible chance of being returned to you safely.

How a Tiny Chip Makes
a Huge Difference

The technology is simple, but the security it provides is immense.
Here’s why a microchip is an essential part of responsible pet ownership.

What Exactly Is a Microchip?

A microchip is a tiny electronic chip, about the size of a grain of rice, enclosed in a glass cylinder. It’s not a GPS tracker. Instead, it holds a unique identification number that links back to you through a secure online registry. A microchip is a permanent and unchangeable form of identification that stays with your pet wherever they go.

Proof of Ownership

A registered microchip is legal proof that a pet is yours. In the unfortunate event of a dispute over ownership or if your pet is found, say, after a natural disaster, the microchip provides definitive evidence that they are a member of your family.

The Procedure: Quick, Safe, & Simple

Implanting a microchip is as quick and easy as a routine vaccination. It’s gently injected just under the surface of your pet’s skin, usually between the shoulder blades.
The procedure doesn’t require anesthesia and can be done during any regular wellness visit. The best part? You only have to do it once.

How It Brings Your Furball Home

If your lost pet is found and taken to a veterinary clinic or animal shelter, they’ll be scanned with a universal scanner.

The scanner reads your pet’s unique ID number, allowing the staff to contact the microchip registry.

The registry then uses your contact information to get in touch with you right away. So, always keep your information up to date!
