Microchipping in Cassville

Permanent Protection for Your Pet

Microchipping provides reliable identification to help reunite you with your pet if they’re ever lost.

Ensure your pet’s safety with a permanent, reliable identification microchip

A microchip is the most reliable way to ensure your lost dog or cat makes it home safely. At Herrin Animal Hospital, we perform microchipping in Cassville quickly and safely during regular office visits. This simple procedure provides permanent identification that lasts your pet’s entire lifetime and greatly increases the chances of reunion if your animal goes missing.

Permanent Identification That Works

Permanent Protection Beyond Tags and Collars

Unlike collars and tags that can fall off or become illegible, a microchip stays with your pet permanently. The tiny chip, which is about the size of a grain of rice, sits just under the skin between the shoulder blades. It contains a unique identification number that’s linked to your contact information in a pet recovery database.

When a lost pet arrives at an animal shelter or veterinary clinic, staff members scan for a microchip. If they find one, they contact the registry company, which then contacts you using the information you provided during registration. Thousands of pets reunite with their families every year thanks to microchips. The system works, but only if you keep your contact information current in the registry database.

Quick, Safe Implantation

Fast, Simple, and Secure Protection

Microchipping takes just seconds and causes minimal discomfort, similar to a routine vaccination. We use a sterile needle to inject the chip under the skin. No anesthesia is required, and most pets barely react to the procedure. There’s no recovery time, so pets can resume their normal activities immediately after their appointment.

After implantation, we scan the chip to verify it’s working properly and provide you with information to help you register your account with the registry company. If you ever move or change your phone number, you’ll need to access your account to provide updated information.
