The Benefits of Microchipping Your Pet

If there was something simple, safe, and effective, in addition to being affordable, that helped to keep our children safe, who wouldn't want it? And the same applies to our pets, and those are the precise benefits microchipping affords pets and their owners.

•           Lost Pets: Pets can get distracted and run off, or get lost for any number of reasons. The good news is, with microchipping, any pet can be identified, and most importantly, find their way back home.

•           Safe ID Method: Microchipping is easy, effective, and safe, among other benefits, and is relatively affordable.

•           Unique Identification: Every microchip has a unique ID number. That makes every microchip unique to its registered pet.

•           Better than Collars: Pet collars can get lost, irritate pets, break or become worn and illegible, and can even cause choking risks in rare circumstances. None of those issues are a concern with microchipping, making it a better way than collars to help identify your pet if they ever become lost.
