Pet Microchipping
It is every pet parent's worst nightmare: an open gate, a loud thunderstorm, and a pet that suddenly goes missing. Collars can break, and tags can fall off, but a microchip provides a permanent, tamper-proof link between you and your furry family member. At Braescroft Animal Clinic, we offer safe, fast, and affordable pet microchipping to ensure that if your pet ever gets lost, they have the absolute best chance of finding their way back home.
The Lifesaving Benefits of a Pet Microchip
Permanent Identification
Unlike traditional collars with ID tags that can easily snag, tear, or be removed, a microchip is safely implanted beneath your pet's skin. It lasts for your pet’s entire lifetime, serving as a permanent, undeniable proof of ownership.
A Quick, Painless Process
Getting a microchip is as fast and simple as a routine vaccination. The tiny chip, about the size of a grain of rice, is injected just under the loose skin between your pet's shoulder blades. It takes only a few seconds, requires no anesthesia, and can be done during any standard wellness exam.
A Nationwide Safety Net
Every animal shelter, rescue organization, and veterinary clinic in the country is equipped with universal microchip scanners. If your lost pet is found and brought into any facility, they will be scanned immediately, and the unique ID number will be used to contact you right away.
