Secure Your Pet’s Safety
At Willow Bend Veterinary Clinic, we’re not just about treating cats and dogs when they’re ill—we’re dedicated to ensuring they stay safe and can always find their way back to you. Pet microchipping is a simple, secure, and effective way to give your furry family member an extra layer of protection if they ever become lost.
The Basics of Pet Microchipping
Pet microchipping is a form of permanent identification for your pet. A microchip, about the size of a grain of rice, is implanted just under your pet’s skin, typically between the shoulder blades. This microchip contains a unique ID number that can be read by a scanner carried by most animal shelters and veterinarians. Should your pet ever get lost, this ID number, when scanned, will be your ticket to a happy reunion, as it links to your contact information in a national database.
Pet collars can break or be removed, and tags can wear down or get lost. Pet microchips, however, are designed to last your pet’s lifetime, providing a permanent solution to the age-old problem of missing pets. Microchipping offers peace of mind beyond what collars and tags can provide.
A Quick and Easy ID
Getting your pet microchipped at Willow Bend Veterinary Clinic is a straightforward, minimally invasive procedure that can be completed during any veterinary visit in just a few minutes. For a completely pain-free process, we can insert the microchip while your pet is under anesthesia for other procedures such as spaying/neutering or dental cleaning. Microchipping can also be done during a standard veterinary appointment, a quick process for most pets with momentary discomfort.
Once microchipped, your pet’s ID number must be registered in a national pet recovery database with your contact information. It’s crucial to keep this information up to date. If you move or change phone numbers, updating your contact details in the pet microchip database is essential to ensure your companion’s microchip remains an effective tool for their safety.
