Microchips are one of the best ways to ensure your pet returns safely home in the unfortunate event they become lost. This small piece of technology provides your pet with a secure and reliable means of identification. Here are a few FAQ for pet parents.
Microchip FAQ:
Will My Pet Feel the Microchip?
No, microchips won't hurt your pet anymore than a routine vaccination. The microchip implant doesn't even require anesthetic. It's a quick and simple procedure.
Do Microchips Tell Your Pets Location?
Microchips do not work like a GPS. Instead, they just provide permanent ID for your pet. When a scanner is passed over your pet, the microchip gets enough power from the scanner to transfer the ID number.
Why Does Your Pet Need a Microchip?
Even if your pet wear a collar with tags, it's still important to have a microchip. Collar tags can fall off or become worn and difficult to read. Microchips provide permanent identification.
