To help prevent your animal(s) from getting lost, remember to ALWAYS have a collar with some kind of identification tag securely attached to it. A microchip (small rice-sized chip inserted underneath the skin, in-between the shoulder blades), is also another great way to identify your animal. It’s an invisible identification tag that cannot be lost like collars and tags, and is NOT a tracking device.
WE DO MICROCHIPPING WITH NO APPOINTMENT NEEDED!
