Microchip identification

Microchipping is a safe, simple and permanent form of pet identification to immediately identify lost pets and quickly reunite them with their owners. The microchip is injected under your pet's skin over the shoulders. Each chip contains a unique barcode. The chip is gentle to the tissues, and does not cause a reaction to the body. When a scanner is passed over the pet, the bar code is read. 

You must register your pet with 'idENTICHIP', and they will supply information on the pet with that barcode, and this service is available nationwide, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Please ask a member of staff for more information or visit their website on:

The owner is responsible for keeping information up-to-date with the 'idENTICHIP'. 

All veterinary hospitals, shelters, and rescue groups have scanners.
