🐾 MICROCHIPS SAVE LIVES — BUT ONLY IF THEY’RE REGISTERED! 🐾
Did you know that a microchip is NOT a GPS tracker? It cannot track your pet’s location or tell you where they are. Instead, a microchip is a tiny device (about the size of a grain of rice) implanted under your pet’s skin that contains a unique identification number.
🏥 How it works:
✅ Your pet is microchipped by a veterinarian.
✅ If your pet becomes lost, a veterinary clinic, shelter, or animal control officer can scan the chip.
✅ The chip number is matched to a registration database.
✅ You are contacted and reunited with your furry family member!
⚠️ The most important part? Registration!
A microchip is only effective if your contact information is current in the registration database.
Take a few minutes today to:
✔️ Verify your pet’s microchip is registered.
✔️ Update your phone number, address, and email if they’ve changed.
✔️ Ask us to scan your pet’s microchip at their next visit to make sure it’s still readable.
✔️ Keep a collar and ID tag on your pet as an added layer of protection.
💡 Microchip Facts
• Microchips do not require batteries.
• They are designed to last your pet’s lifetime.
• They are safe for dogs, cats, and many other pets.
• They do not store medical records or personal information—only a unique ID number.
• Even indoor pets should be microchipped. Accidents happen, and doors can be left open.
🐶🐱 Every year, thousands of lost pets are reunited with their families because of a microchip. One small chip can make a lifetime of difference.
