Microchipping Your Pet
Did you know that each year, 300,000 animals go missing in the UK. Microchipping is the most effective way of identifying a lost pet. If the animal is not chipped and does not have a collar, then it will probably end up in an animal shelter and be rehomed.
A small glass capsule (approximately the size of a grain of rice) containing a microchip is implanted under the skin between the shoulder blades. When the dog is scanned using a special reader, the microchip will transmit its uniqure reference number to the reader. The dog’s identity and address can then be established by contacting PetLog with this reference number who will search their database.
If you live in the UK and want to take your pet abroad with you, microchipping is mandatory and becomes part of the ‘pet passport’.
The cost of this service when combined with a wash/groom is £20. If it is required as a stand alone service, the cost is £25.
