Micro chipping

May 25th, 2010 by Peter

It must be quite a trauma if your dog or cats go awol – for all the family really, wondering if it’s just gone for a little adventure or if its sadly been knocked down by a car.

So, what can be done to avoid this heartbreak? Surprisingly there is a straight-forward answer that you can do.

If you make a visit to your local vet most of them will offer a micro chipping service This is where an implant, which is only the size of a grain of rice, is injected under your pet’s skin. This stores all the pets details – name, address, phone numbers etc that can then be used used to trace you – its rightful owner!

The procedure doesn’t cost much and is fairly quick and straight forward and although it won’t actually stop them from taking a little wonder, It will certainly increase the chances that you will have your beloved companion returned.
