Pet Microchippingin Plymouth
Microchipping at Parrett Veterinary Clinic helps provide permanent identification for your pet’s safety.
Permanent Identification for Lifelong Peace of Mind
Pets are curious by nature, and even the most careful families can experience a lost pet situation. At Parrett Veterinary Clinic in Plymouth, IN, microchipping provides a safe, reliable way to help ensure your pet can be identified and returned home if they ever become lost.
How Microchipping Works
A microchip is a tiny electronic chip, about the size of a grain of rice, placed just beneath your pet’s skin. Each chip carries a unique identification number that can be read by a scanner at veterinary clinics and animal shelters nationwide.
A Quick and Simple Procedure
Microchipping is fast, safe, and similar to a routine injection. The procedure can be done during a wellness visit or while your pet is under anesthesia for another procedure, such as spay or neuter.
Why Microchips Matter
Unlike collars and tags, which can fall off or be removed, a microchip provides permanent identification. When paired with accurate registration information, microchips greatly increase the chances of reuniting lost pets with their families.
