PET MICROCHIPPING IN MADISON
We know you do everything possible to keep your pet safe, but sometimes accidents happen. Collars with identification tags are an excellent first step to bringing your pet home safely, but they can break or slip off your pet’s neck. Pet microchipping is a safe, simple, and permanent solution for pet identification. Contact us to learn more about our pet microchipping services!
THE PET MICROCHIPPING PROCESS
THE PROCESS IS PAINLESS
A microchip is a high-tech, battery-free device inserted just beneath your pet’s skin between the shoulder blades. The microchip consists of materials that do not react with your pet’s body and becomes naturally surrounded by tissue over time to prevent it from moving.
The pet microchipping process is as simple as receiving a vaccination. We place the microchip inside a small syringe. Then, our skilled veterinarian injects the chip under the skin in the proper location. The process is painless and can be done during a vaccination appointment or wellness exam.
REGISTERING YOUR PET’S MICROCHIP
WHAT TO DO AFTER THE PROCEDURE
After the procedure, our team will provide you with all the necessary information for registering your pet’s microchip. Registering your pet involves logging into a website and providing your pet’s name, address, and who to contact if they are ever lost.
Once the registration process is complete, the chip will always have your name and address assigned to it. If you ever change addresses, log into the database again to keep your location current.
RETURNING YOUR PET HOME SAFELY
A SIMPLE SCAN WILL HELP!
If your pet is ever lost and found, their rescuer can bring them to any veterinarian with a microchip reader to identify your pet. A simple scan will help retrieve your contact information and reunite you quickly!
Many microchip services also include an automatic notification system. After the chip is scanned, the service will notify you that your pet is safe.
