Microchipping
A split second is all it takes for a beloved pet to slip out the door or wander off. Microchipping offers permanent identification, dramatically increasing the chances of finding your pet if they become lost or separated.
Benefits of HomeAgain Microchips:
- Quick & Safe Procedure: Implanted via a simple injection, often during spay/neuter surgery or on awake pets with minimal discomfort.
- Universal Scanners: Most veterinary clinics and shelters can detect HomeAgain chips, making reuniting pets and owners much easier.
- Lifetime Protection: Once implanted, the chip lasts for the life of your pet.
Microchipping provides peace of mind, knowing you’ve taken an extra step to protect your pet, wherever they may roam.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does a microchip help if my pet is lost?
A scanner at a vet’s office or shelter reads the chip’s unique ID. This ID is linked to your contact info in a database, allowing a quick reunion.
Is microchipping painful or harmful to my pet?
Insertion feels like a routine vaccination. The microchip is very small and does not cause ongoing discomfort or harm.
Will a microchip track my pet’s exact location?
No. Microchips are not GPS devices. They provide identification when scanned and rely on updated registration info.
Does the chip need replacement or updates over time?
The chip itself lasts your pet’s lifetime. However, you should update your contact details in the database if you move or change phone numbers.
What if I change my address or phone number?
Contact the microchip registry to update your information. This step is crucial to ensure you can be reached if your pet is found.
