Microchipping
Each year, many pets go missing and never make it back home to their loved ones. Prien Lake Animal Hospital wants to help you keep track of your pets and find them more easily should you ever get separated from them.
Microchipping is a simple, safe, and effective way to ensure your pet can be identified and returned to you if they ever become lost. A microchip is a small, rice-sized device that is painlessly implanted under your pet’s skin, typically between the shoulder blades. Each chip contains a unique identification number, which is linked to your contact information in a secure database.
Unlike collars or tags, a microchip cannot be lost or damaged, providing a permanent form of identification. Should your pet ever go missing, veterinary clinics, shelters, and animal control officers can scan the chip and quickly reunite you with your pet.
Why Microchip Your Pet?
- Permanent identification that lasts a lifetime.
- Increases the chances of a safe return if your pet gets lost
- Quick and painless procedure, similar to a routine vaccination
- We recommend micro chipping all pets, regardless of whether they live indoors or outdoors.
