About the Service

Microchipping is one of the most reliable ways to ensure your pet can always be identified and safely returned if they ever go missing. Unlike collars and tags, which can be lost or removed, a microchip provides a permanent form of identification that links your pet to you through a registered database.

The process is quick, safe, and virtually painless. A tiny microchip, about the size of a grain of rice, is implanted just under your pet’s skin. This chip contains a unique identification number, which can be scanned by veterinary clinics, rescue centres, and animal shelters. Once scanned, the details linked to the chip help reunite you with your pet as quickly as possible.

Why Does My Pet Need This Service?

Even the most well-trained pets can wander off or get lost. Whether they slip out of the garden, become frightened and run away, or are stolen, having a microchip significantly increases the chances of being reunited with your pet.

Microchipping is also a legal requirement for dogs in many areas, and some places require it for cats as well. Beyond compliance, it gives pet owners peace of mind knowing that their pet has a reliable form of identification at all times.

What to Expect

The microchipping procedure is simple and takes only a few moments. Our veterinary team will place the microchip just beneath the skin, usually between your pet’s shoulder blades. It is no more painful than a routine vaccination, and most pets experience little to no discomfort.

Once the microchip is implanted, we will register your details in a secure database. It is important to keep this information up to date so that if your pet ever goes missing, the correct contact details are available when the microchip is scanned.
