Animal microchipping is a very important part of your pet’s identification. In the event of a separation from you, having a microchip enables your pet’s rescuers to identify you and return your pet. We recommend microchipping for all pets, and especially for those who travel. The procedure itself is fast, safe, and relatively pain-free for pets.

Dogwood Veterinary Hospital believes microchipping is the safest, most effective method of pet recovery available, helping reunite more than 15,000 lost pets to their owners every month.
