Microchips are the size of a grain of rice and are placed quickly and easily by injection just under the skin during a routine consultation. They can protect your precious pet against loss or theft and can be easily read by a scanner through the fur. Local vet surgeries play a vital role in reuniting worried owners with their pets on the rare occasions when they become separated from one another. Equally if you do find a lost animal please do bring it into the surgery and if microchipped we will do our best to help it find its way home.
