🐾 Microchipping: Help Lost Pets Find Their Way Home
A microchip is a tiny device—about the size of a grain of rice—placed just under your pet’s skin. It can be done during a regular vet visit and only takes a moment.
Each chip has a unique code that’s linked to your contact details in a national database. If your pet ever goes missing and ends up at a vet clinic or shelter, a scanner can read the chip, and you’ll be contacted straight away.
✅ Not microchipped yet? Call us to book an appointment.
🐕 Found a lost pet? Bring them in—we can scan the chip and help get them home.
