Pet Microchipping

At Pet Medical Center in Tullahoma, TN, we understand how important it is to keep your pets safe. Microchipping is a reliable method to ensure your pets can be easily identified and returned if they ever get lost.

What is Pet Microchipping?

Pet microchipping involves implanting a small chip, about the size of a grain of rice, under your pet’s skin. This chip carries a unique identification number. Unlike collars or tags that can fall off or be removed, a microchip provides a permanent form of identification.

How Microchipping Works

The microchip is injected under the skin using a special needle. The process is quick, safe, and similar to a routine vaccination. Once implanted, the chip’s number can be read by a scanner, revealing the pet owner’s contact information and the veterinary clinic where the chip was placed. This information is stored in a secure database accessible by animal shelters and veterinary clinics nationwide.
