Microchipping

Why Should I Consider Microchipping My Pet?

No matter how careful you are, accidents can happen — a gate left open, a loud noise, or a trip away from home. Microchipping gives your pet a permanent form of identification that can’t fall off, fade, or get misplaced.

It’s a simple way to make sure your pet can always find their way home, and it’s one of the best investments you can make in their safety. Our caring team proudly provides microchipping services for families across Orange City, DeBary, and Deltona.

How Does Microchipping Work?

A microchip is a small device — about the size of a grain of rice — that’s placed under your pet’s skin between the shoulder blades. The chip carries a unique code linked to your contact information in a secure national database.

If your pet ever gets lost, veterinarians and animal shelters across the country can scan for that code. Once your information appears, they can contact you immediately and help reunite you with your pet.

Is Microchipping Safe?

Yes. The process is quick, safe, and causes little to no discomfort. No anesthesia is required, and once the chip is in place, it lasts for life. Most pets don’t even notice the brief injection, and the chip itself requires no maintenance.

What Should I Do After My Pet Is Microchipped?

After the procedure, we’ll help you register your pet’s microchip in the national database. Be sure to keep your contact information current — it’s what makes the microchip work effectively.

Even if your pet spends most of their time indoors, accidents can happen. Microchipping gives you confidence that your furry friend will always have a way home.

Protect what matters most — your pet’s safety and peace of mind. Schedule a microchipping appointment today for lasting protection across Orange City, DeBary, and Deltona.
