HomeAgain Microchip
Animal Health Care uses the HomeAgain Microchip. Microchipping has become a very popular and safe way to permanently identify your pet and you as the owner in the unfortunate case that your pet is lost. It involves placement of a small electronic chip the size and shape of a grain of rice just under the skin in the neck area. A needle is used to inject the chip. The injection is comparable to a regular vaccine injection.
If your pet becomes lost and is transported to an animal control facility or humane society, they are able to scan your pet for the chip and contact you. The scanner is similar to a scanner found in the grocery store.
We advise you to use this system of identification as well as a collar/tag identification system on your pet.
We are happy to discuss and demonstrate a microchip for you in our office. Stop by and let us show you!
