Microchipping:
Microchipping is the gold standard for pet identification should your pet get lost. It is common place now for most facilities to carry microchip scanners to scan found pets. It has been proven that more pets have been reunited with their families when they are microchipped.
- We recommend HOMEAGAIN microchipping around the time you have your pet spay/neutered.
- If you are worried about chipping your mini breed, it can be done during their neuter or spay surgery so your pet is not awake for the injection.
- A rice size microchip is implanted via injection into your puppy, subcutaneously, between their shoulder blades. Your puppy would be registered in the microchip data base with your information.
- Microchipping is your permanent link to your pet, your pet’s ID code can be easily scanned by vet or rescue shelter.
- If your cat were to get out, almost all shelters and veterinary hospitals carry microchip readers that can obtain your cat’s microchip number, the facility would contact the universal microchip website and acquire your information to contact you.
- Newer microchips have temp scan capability allowing temperature checks without using rectal thermometers.
- A yearly membership for the peace of mind that lost pets will get back to where they belong with 24/7/365 Pet Recovery, Medical Hotline and Found Pet Assistance.
- International Travel requires microchipping.
- If you are thinking of traveling with your dog or moving out of the country, your dog should be microchipped before their Rabies vaccine. This is very important to remember to avoid any paper work issues.
