Common Questions About Microchipping
Why do we microchip pets?
Microchips help lost pets to be quickly identified and reunited with their families if they are ever separated.
How do you microchip my pet?
A microchip is inserted just under the skin with a needle, usually during a quick, routine visit.
Does the microchip track my pet’s location?
No. A microchip is not a GPS device. It can only be read with a specialized scanner at a veterinary clinic, shelter, or municipal animal services.
What should I do if I move or change my phone number?
Update your contact information with the microchip registry as soon as possible so you can be reached if your pet is found.
