What Is a Microchip?

A microchip is a tiny, rice-sized device implanted under your pet’s skin, usually between the shoulder blades. Each chip contains a unique ID number linked to your contact information in a national database. Veterinary clinics, shelters, and animal control agencies can scan the chip to identify your pet and contact you immediately.

Key Facts:

  • Microchipping is quick, safe, and minimally invasive
  • No batteries or maintenance required
  • Microchips do not track your pet’s location (they are not GPS devices)
  • The chip lasts for life and can’t be removed or fall off

When to Microchip Your Pet

We recommend microchipping dogs and cats of all ages, ideally during puppy or kitten wellness visits or at the time of spaying or neutering. Already have an adult pet? It’s never too late. We can implant a chip during a routine exam — no anesthesia required.

The Importance of Registration

Implanting the microchip is only the first step. Our team will guide you through registering your pet’s ID number and keeping your contact information up to date so your pet can always find their way home.
