Identity Chipping
If your pet is lost but is identifiable by having a microchip, then we can identify them when they are found.
A special reader tells us the pet's number and after a phone call to the database, we find out your name and address with phone number, so we can re-unite the two of you. All Vets and rescue places have readers nowadays.
The microchip is inserted during a consult, using a needle on an applicator. It can be done at vaccination, or commonly at neutering around 6 months of age, when they won't even feel it!
