What does it mean when you have your dog microchipped?
Dog microchipping in Hebron is a simple yet highly effective way to help ensure your pet’s safe return if they ever get lost. The process involves a small needle that inserts a microchip just beneath your dog’s skin. This chip contains your contact information, so if your dog ever wanders off or gets out of the house, any shelter or veterinary clinic can scan the chip, retrieve your details, and help reunite you with your furry friend.

HomeAgain doesn’t have anything that works like a GPS tracker in the microchip. The way that it works is if your dog were to get out and somebody finds them on the road, they could take them to a shelter, a veterinary clinic, or a rescue, and they would have a scanner they use to scan the microchip. They’d get your microchip number, and then they could look that up to get your information.
Veterinary clinics, rescues, and shelters are the three that would have access to a scanner to scan your pet’s microchip.
We just got these new microchips in. They have a temperature scanner on the chip itself, so while the chip is in your pet, we can just scan your pet. Not only does it come up with their microchip number, but it also comes up with their temperature so that we don’t have to do a rectal temperature, which most of them aren’t a fan of.
In the event that your pet gets lost and someone brings them to a shelter or clinic, the staff can scan for a microchip and retrieve its unique ID number. Thanks to dog microchipping in Hebron, that number can be looked up through the HomeAgain website to access your contact information. This allows the shelter or clinic to call you directly and let you know that your pet has been found and where they are located.
We always recommend any dog gets microchipped, even if they’re a homebody and they like to sit by you on the couch. You never know; anything can happen, such as storms and natural disasters. Your pet can get out during any of those situations, and it’s just an extra peace of mind knowing that if they were to get out, they could come back to you.
You can always contact the HomeAgain microchip company or wherever you got your microchip placed, whether at the shelter or a veterinary clinic. You can contact them, and they will have a copy of your pet’s number.
Yes. We actually have the Sure Petcare products that just came out and are now available. They have pet feeders, doggy doors, and water bowls, all of that is accessed to the microchip. You can set how much your dog or cat can eat when they can and can’t go outside, and all of that’s based on their microchip.
