Professional Pet Microchipping in Halesowen
A microchip is a small, rice grain-sized electronic device implanted under the skin of your pet.
Your microchip holds a unique identification number which can be read using a microchip scanner by the vet, rescue charities, or local councils. If a lost pet is found the microchip can be scanned and matched to your registered contact details.
This gives you a much higher chance of being reunited with your pet. Unlike a collar and tag, which can be lost or removed, the microchip will remain with your pet for its entire life.
Dog Microchipping in Halesowen
Responsible pet owners need to be aware of the importance of dog microchipping, which is also a legal requirement in England.
At Local Vets, we can implant microchips into puppies and dogs of any size or breed. This process is very simple, fast, safe and causes minimal discomfort, much like receiving a vaccination.
Microchipping your dog will ensure that you remain compliant with current laws and give you peace of mind that your animal can be traced should they ever get lost.
Cat Microchipping Halesowen
Cats are independent by nature and can also be very daring, and at times can be much further away than you thought. A microchip offers an everlasting form of identification and can get your cat home safely again.
Regardless of if your cat goes out or stays in the house, micro-chipping will protect your cat. The microchip is something our veterinary practice micro-chips to kittens and adult cats daily.
Why Microchipping Your Pet Matters
Many owners fail to realise how quickly their pet could go missing. A left open gate, a startling noise or just a split second of distraction can all lead to your pet getting lost at home.
A microchip adds yet another level of protection in making sure your pet has a permanent identification system it can’t lose.
The benefits of pet microchipping include:
- Permanent identification for life
- Improved chances of recovering lost pets
- Compliance with legal requirements for dogs
- Proof of ownership when needed
- Greater peace of mind for pet owners
The micro-chip procedure is very straightforward and will be highly beneficial if your pet should become lost at any time.
Is Pet Microchipping Safe?
Pet microchipping is very safe, and has been practiced by vets in the UK since the late 1990's.
Insertion of the chip involves using a sterile applicator, a painless and quick process taking just seconds to implant the chip under the skin of your pet. Most pets just notice mild discomfort. The dog/cat can go home and continue as normal straight after the procedure.
The microchips do not have a power supply and are not rechargeable; they will last for life.
