Quick and easy pet microchipping services for lifelong security

For pet owners, the thought of losing a beloved companion is distressing. Despite best efforts, pets can, and often do, become separated from their families. Companion Animal Hospital proudly offers pet microchipping, an invaluable step in ensuring a safe return if your pet wanders from home or becomes lost.

Microchipping is a simple, quick procedure that provides a permanent form of identification for your beloved companion. Should your pet ever get lost, a microchip increases the likelihood of a happy reunion, offering peace of mind to pet owners and security for their furry friends.

How Pet Microchipping Works

Having your pet microchipped is a simple and safe procedure. A tiny chip roughly the size of a grain of rice is gently injected under your pet’s skin between their shoulder blades. This chip contains a unique identification number, which you will register in a national pet microchipping database alongside your contact information.

If your pet becomes lost or wanders away from home, shelter, veterinary hospitals, or rescue organizations, use special handheld scanners to scan your pet’s chip and reveal their unique ID number. Rescue personnel can then use this number to obtain your contact information, providing you and your pet with a swift, happy reunion.

It’s important to note that keeping your contact information up to date in the pet microchipping database is essential. If you move or change your phone number, you must update your information to ensure your pet can always be traced back to you.
