No one understands the importance of your pet more than Crescent Springs Animal Hospital. They have become known in the Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky areas for their caring, expert veterinary services that range from dental care to emergency vet treatments. They also understand how devastating it can be when a pet goes missing, which is why they encourage all pet owners to consider microchipping. A microchip is a small, safe, and simple form of identification that can save your pet’s life. Here are a few reasons you should consider it for your pet:

  • It’s Inexpensive: For a one-time cost of about $50, you get a microchip the size of a grain of rice that contains your contact information. That information is also stored in a database that can be accessed and matched with your pet.
  • It’s Painless: The insertion process feels the same as any vaccination, and there are few risks or side effects associated with the procedure. In this case, most vets agree that the benefits far outweigh the risks.

  • Collars Aren’t Enough: Many pet owners think that identification collars and tags are enough to keep pets safe, but the reality is that those things are temporary. If the collar slips off or is damaged or cut, whoever finds your pet will have no way of returning it to you.
  • They Work: Sadly, one in three pets is lost during their lifetime. If your pet does become lost for whatever reason, the odds of them being returned to you is dramatically increased by microchipping.
