Microchips

It only takes a second for your pet to slip out the door of your home and never return. Although many pet owners put their contact information on a tag and attach it to a collar, the collar can easily come off or someone could remove it when trying to steal your pet. If your pet has a microchip, a veterinarian can scan the chip for your contact information and let you know where to find your lost pet.

What to know about the microchip ID 

The procedure is no more painful than a routine vaccination. An Isla Boutique Hospital veterinarian will place the microchip in loose skin just below the shoulder blade.

The microchip contains a unique identification number that you must register with the national lost pet registry. Any veterinarian can scan the microchip and notify you.
A microchip is not a Global Positioning System (GPS).
