Microchipping your pet

Facts + FAQ's

why you should microchip

If Your Pet Gets Lost

If your pet is lost and the finder brings them into a veterinarian office or animal shelter, they will be able to scan your pet. From there they will call the chip company and then be able to contact you!

Theft

If your pet is stolen from you, having them microchipped to you helps to prove that you are the owner of the pet!

Ownership Issues

Microchipping your pet, lists you as the legal owner. If anyone ever questions who the pet belongs to, your microchip is like a registration for a car and proves ownership.

Universal Scanners

Any veterinarian or animal shelter across the country has the ability to scan any animal and gather the owner information!

Security

Unlike a collar with tags that can fall off or be removed, a microchip remains securely in place.
