Pet Microchipping

Pet Microchipping

Over 10 million pets are reported missing each year, and one in three pets may go missing at some point in their lives, according to Petfinder. Any veterinarian or animal shelter can use a specialized microchip scanner to identify your pet’s microchip and contact you as soon as possible if they go missing or are found. According to one study, pets with microchips were recovered 52% more frequently than pets without them, who did so only 22% of the time. Make careful to notify the microchip manufacturer if you relocate or alter your contact information at any time so they can promptly update their records.
