Professional Pet Microchipping Near Dudley
A pet microchip is a small piece of electronic equipment which is inserted into the skin of your pet and is unique to your animal. The database holding your contact information is scanned from the microchip by vet practices, animal rescues and local councils should your lost animal be found.
A microchip is a lifelong and constant way of ensuring your pet can be traced back to you, as it cannot break like collars or identification tags may.
Microchipping is quick, it guarantees you peace of mind for life, and is highly recommended by all vets in the UK.
Dog Microchipping Dudley
Mandatory microchipping of dogs is now compulsory in England and is a key component of being a responsible pet owner. At Local Vets, we microchip dogs (from puppies to adult dogs of all breeds), the process itself taking a mere matter of moments and being virtually painless (like receiving a vaccination).
If your dog is already microchipped, then Local Vets can check the chip for you and advise on making sure all of your contact details are recorded accurately and are fully up to date. Booking dog microchipping near Dudley with Local Vets can ensure your pet is permanently identified if ever they become separated from you.
Cat Microchipping Dudley
Cats are naturally very curious, and they will roam a lot further than most people expect. A microchip, if a cat goes missing can be a huge help in getting the cat back home.
The vets at our practice offer a weekly cat microchipping service for both kittens and adult cats. The procedure is safe, fast and cannot be lost or removed easily.
A microchip offers protection to cats, regardless of if they stay mainly in the house or go out as far as the door.
Why Microchipping Your Pet is Important
Thousands of pets go missing in the UK each year. While tags and collars still serve their purpose, they are often not sufficient as a stand-alone identification system.
Microchipping can also help to protect your pet:
- Permanent identification that lasts for life
- Increased likelihood of recovering lost pets
- Legal compliance for dog owners
- Assistance with confirming ownership
- Peace of mind for pet owners
A quick microchipping appointment today can mean a world of difference should your beloved pet become lost in the future.
Safe, Reliable and Professional Microchipping
Owners are often shocked by how fast and easy microchipping is. The chip itself is a small, sterile needle, and it is inserted beneath the skin in the space between the shoulder blades.
For most animals, there is very little discomfort involved and the animal is up and playing almost immediately.
Microchips do not need batteries or maintenance and are built to last the duration of the pet's life.
