Microchipping

Every year, more than 6,000 pets go missing. Wow!

Here’s how to make sure yours comes back.

There’s no guarantee that a collar and tag will stay on your pet but there are no such worries with a microchip. A microchip is a tiny, electronic chip (the size of a grain of rice) which is injected into your pet as simply and quickly as any other injection. The unique number is registered with the AAR (Australian Animal Registry) online. Then, if your pet goes missing, it’s as if it has its own barcode. Stray pets are routinely scanned for the microchip by vets, rescue kennels, stray dog homes, the ranger etc. This brings up the computer record with your details and in moments the pet’s owner and details will be known. We can microchip your pet and give you instant peace of mind. It is also now a legal requirement of all councils of the Perth Metropolitan area to have your pets microchipped.
