6 Reasons to microchip your pet!

🐾🐶Microchipping your pets is crucial because collars and tags can easily fall off or get lost, leaving your pet without identification. A microchip, however, is a permanent form of identification that can be scanned by a vet or shelter. This ensures that if your pet is found and taken to a vet, they can be quickly identified and returned to you.

Always make sure to update your contact information and residential address at your vet who inserted the microchip. 🌟
