Microchipping is a clever way of linking your pet to you.
The microchip is about the size of a grain of rice and is implanted under the skin where it stays for the duration of your pet’s life. Each microchip is assigned a unique code which when registered will be assigned to your details.
Micro chipping is a safe effective way to help your pet return home safe and sound if he or she becomes lost. It is also a necessary requirement as part of the pet passport micro–chipping scheme.
