Microchipping

At Mariners Mile Pet Clinic in beautiful Newport Beach, CA, we understand the profound connection you share with your furry companions. Their safety and well-being are of the utmost importance, and one crucial aspect of ensuring their protection is through microchipping.

Why Microchip Your Pet?

• Permanent Identification: Microchipping offers a secure and permanent method of identifying your pet. Unlike collars and tags that can be lost or removed, a microchip is a tiny device, about the size of a grain of rice, that is implanted just beneath your pet's skin. This small investment can make a monumental difference in reuniting you with your pet if they ever get lost.
• Quick and Painless Procedure: The microchipping process is quick, simple, and virtually painless. Our experienced veterinarians at Mariners Mile Pet Clinic use a sterile needle to inject the microchip beneath the skin, usually between the shoulder blades. The procedure is akin to a routine vaccination and can be done during a regular visit or alongside other procedures like spaying or neutering.
• International Identification: Once your pet is microchipped, the microchips are ISO compliant, so their unique identification number is registered in an international database. This means that if your pet goes missing and is found, animal shelters, veterinary offices, and rescue organizations across the world can scan for the microchip and access your contact information. It significantly increases the chances of a swift reunion.
