Microchipping
Microchipping
Each year, many families face the heartbreak of a missing pet. Without reliable identification, far too many never make it back home. A microchip is the simplest, most effective way to give your pet the best chance of being reunited with you.
At Bangor Veterinary Clinic, we provide microchipping so families in our community can rest easier knowing their pets have lifelong protection. Unlike collars or tags that can break or fall off, a microchip is permanent, safe, and always with your pet.
What is a microchip?
- A microchip is a tiny device, about the size of a grain of rice, placed just under your pet’s skin.
- The procedure is quick, safe, and no more uncomfortable than a vaccination.
- Each microchip contains a unique ID number that links to your contact information in a national database.
How does a microchip work?
When a lost pet is found, veterinary clinics, animal shelters, and rescues scan for a microchip. That quick scan reveals the chip’s ID number, helping reunite your pet with your family faster.
Research shows that pets with microchips are much more likely to return home than those without. For your family, that means peace of mind knowing your pet’s safety is covered, wherever life’s adventures take them.
