Microchip Your Dog or Cat
Accidents can happen! Statistics share that 1 in 3 companion animals will go missing in their lifetime.
Microchips, engraved ID tags and licenses (with up to date information) are the fastest way for your beloved companion to find his or her way back home if ever lost.
A small microchip, (about the size of a grain of rice) is inserted under the loose skin on the back of your pet's neck. This coded inserted chip remains a permanent means of identification of your pet.
