Microchipping

Marshall and Pringle have a microchip scanner and advocate microchipping as a safe, humane, permanent and reliable method of animal identification.

A tiny microchip is inserted under local anesthetic between the animals shoulder blades with the animals number and ownership details entered in an Australasian database that is instantly available when the chip is scanned.

The benefit of having your pet micro-chipped is that when your pet is picked up by a dog control officer, shelter or taken to a vet, it can have its micro-chip scanned to identify the animal's registration and owner's address and contact details.

Every pet owner knows that stomach-sinking feeling when you discover the slipped collar or the gate left open by visitors.

Animals will wander, even from the most responsible owners. And when they do, you need the assurance that they will be traced and returned home as quickly as possible. You want assurance that your cat or dog will receive expert care from a veterinarian if they come to some harm.
