Losing a pet can be a pet owner's worst nightmare. Tags and collars identifying your pet can be break off or become illegible. A microchip, however, is permanent form of pet identification and is a fundamental part of responsible pet ownership.
A microchip is about the size and shape of a grain of rice that is injected under the skin of a dog or cat. The microchip is registered in a database with your contact information. If your pet was to ever become lost, the microchip can be scanned by animal control officers, at shelters, and at veterinary clinics around Canada, North America, and in many foreign countries. Implanting your pet with a microchip can give you the peace of mind that if your pet were to ever become lost, they could quickly be identified and you can be contacted.
Contact information can be updated online or by telephone to the HomeAgain Microchip company. It is important to ensure that your contact information is kept current! Please ask a staff member for details about microchipping your pet.
