Microchip Technology

The microchip is a small, implantable device that contains the pet’s identification information.

Introduction

The concept of microchipping pets has been around for several decades, but its popularity has grown significantly in recent years. With the increasing number of pets lost and found, microchipping has become a crucial tool for pet owners to ensure their pets’ safe return. In this article, we will delve into the world of microchipping, exploring its benefits, how it works, and the importance of registration.

How Microchipping Works

Microchipping is a small, permanent implant that contains a unique identification number. When a pet is microchipped, the chip is inserted under the skin, usually between the shoulder blades. The chip is made of a biocompatible material that is safe for pets to have in their bodies. When a pet is scanned, the chip emits a unique signal that is read by a scanner, allowing the pet’s owner to be identified. The microchip is not a GPS device, but rather a passive device that only responds to a scanner.
