Microchipping

Thousands of pets go missing every year, and many don’t make it back home.  Even collars and identification tags may not be enough to protect your pet.  Microchips are safe, simple forms of identification.  

A microchip is about the size and shape of a grain of rice and is placed underneath your pet’s skin between the shoulder blades.  Microchip implantation takes only a few minutes and is very safe.  Your pet’s microchip carries identification information about your pet, including your name, address, and contact information.

Best Friends Animal Hospital believes microchipping is the safest, most effective method of pet recovery available.  To learn more about the benefits of microchips or to schedule an appointment to have your pet microchipped, please contact our office today!
