Pet Microchipping in Lake Oswego, OR
Be sure your furry friend has a compass so they can find their way home. A microchip is a tiny device, approximately the size of a grain of rice, encoded with a unique ID number specifically assigned to your pet. Unlike traditional tags, no two microchips share the same ID number. The invaluable advantage? Pets with microchips are twenty times more likely to be reunited with their owners than those without.
How It Works
The microchip is delicately placed between your pet’s shoulder blades under the supervision of our experienced veterinarians. Not limited to dogs and cats, our microchipping service is available for rabbits, rats, hamsters, guinea pigs, and more. The procedure is swift, straightforward, and nearly painless, akin to a routine vaccine injection. It conveniently fits into your pet’s regular veterinary check-up visit.
Key Benefits of Compass Microchip
- Comprehensive Coverage: Your purchase of our Compass Microchip includes a complimentary lifetime microchip registration with AKC Reunite. Rest assured, there are no additional fees to maintain your pet’s registration in the AKC Reunite system, setting us apart from other microchip programs with hidden costs and annual renewals.
- Top-Quality Microchips: We prioritize the highest quality microchips for our patients. Our chips boast a seamless design, ensuring their integrity throughout your pet’s lifetime. Crafted from bioglass material, they prevent leakage, overheating, and potential lead exposure.
Not a Tracking Device, but a Lifesaver
It’s crucial to note that a microchip is not a tracking device; instead, it serves as a vital identifier. When needed, it can be “turned on” for a few seconds by a handheld microchip scanner available at veterinary clinics and shelters. These scanners play a pivotal role in reuniting lost pets with their owners.
Annual Wellness Exams
Our veterinarians routinely check your pet’s microchip during annual wellness exams. This ensures the proper functioning of the microchip and verifies that your information is current on your pet’s microchip enrollment record. This proactive approach helps us provide the best care for your furry companions.
Fear-Free Microchipping
At Compass Veterinary Clinic, we understand the importance of minimizing stress for your pets. That’s why we employ Fear-Free practices during microchipping procedures, ensuring a swift and almost painless experience. Our goal is to create a calm and safe environment for your pet’s well-being.
