Petpals Pet ID Microchipping Service for your dog, cat & household pets
At Petpals, we prioritise your pet’s safety and security. Our Pet ID Microchipping Service offers a reliable and permanent identification solution, ensuring your pet can always be identified and returned to you in the event they’re lost.
Our trained professionals conduct the microchipping procedure quickly, safely, and with minimal discomfort. The microchip (about as fine as a grain of rice) is inserted under your pet’s skin, typically between the shoulder blades. It contains a unique ID number readable by scanners at vet clinics, shelters, and recovery centres.
Unlike collars and tags, a microchip provides a lifelong, permanent form of identification, ensuring your pet can always be identified and returned to you.
We handle the registration process, entering your pet’s unique ID microchip number and ensure your contact details are stored and registered into a DEFRA-approved national pet microchipping database. This ensures quick access to your details if your pet is found. Microchipping increases the chances of recovering a lost pet.
In the UK, it is mandatory for all dogs to be microchipped by the age of eight weeks, with owners responsible for keeping the contact details up-to-date; failure to comply can result in facing a fine of up to £500. From June 10, 2024, the same requirement applies to all pet cats in England from the age of 20 weeks old. Compliance with these laws ensures pet safety and avoids legal penalties.
