Microchipping

One of the most devastating events in pet ownership is when a beloved pet goes missing.  The American Humane Society estimates that over 10 million dogs or cats are lost or stolen every year.  That’s why Cloud Peak Veterinary Services offers microchipping services.

Here are some things to know about microchipping:

  • At about the size of a grain of rice, a microchip is a small, glass-encased electronic chip that is injected under an animal’s skin using a hypodermic needle.
  • Once implanted, the microchip is activated by a scanner as it passes over the chip, via radiowaves.  The chip then transmits its identification number to the scanner.  That number is then displayed on the screen.
  • The implantation injection is no more painful than any other injection your pet may receive.
  • No anesthesia or surgery is required.  A microchip can be implanted during a regular office visit.
  • There is no maintenance required, aside from registering in the microchip database.  You should also keep your contact information up-to-date within the database.
  • Your pet’s microchip will be scanned once a year, during its annual wellness exam, to ensure that it is still in place and functioning properly.
  • A microchip is NOT a GPS tracking device, thus it cannot be used to locate your pet.  Using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), a microchip provides permanent identification for your pet.
  • Both cats and dogs can be microchipped.

We encourage all pet owners to consider microchipping.  We are here to answer your questions!
