At Canyon View Cares Veterinary Hospital in Orem, we know life can get busy. Between work, school, and daily routines, pets are part of everything we do. Microchipping is a quick way to ensure your pet is always connected back to you, no matter what happens.
Here’s a closer look at the process.
What Is a Microchip?
A microchip is a small identification device placed under your pet’s skin. It contains a unique number linked to your contact information.
It is not a tracking device but a permanent ID that can be scanned by veterinary clinics and shelters.
What Happens During the Appointment?
Your pet will receive a brief exam. The microchip is then inserted just beneath the skin using a small needle. The process is quick and similar to a vaccination.
After placement, the chip is scanned to ensure it is working properly.
Does It Hurt?
Most pets experience only a quick pinch. The procedure is fast and well tolerated.
What Happens After?
You will register the microchip using the provided ID number. This step is essential for the chip to work.
You will also receive documentation and can have the chip checked during future visits.
What Do You Need to Do?
Register your chip, keep your information updated, and use visible identification like tags.
