Microchips for dogs

Dog chipping and ID-tags collars

Many pet owners still have no idea what microchips for dogs are, although pet tagging is becoming increasingly popular. This way you can increase their level of safety, and this method is used not only for purebreds. The id for dogs gives extra hope when looking for a lost pet.

What is a chip and chipping?

Chipping your dog is not complicated or painful - don't worry about it being traumatic for your pet. The procedure involves implanting a microprocessor into the body. The procedure for chipping a dog is similar to an injection. In the vast majority of cases, the microprocessor is placed between the shoulder blades or on the pet's neck.

The electronic microchips with gps for dogs have a fifteen-digit identification code, which will be assigned to your dog. Of course, each such number is unique. In addition, the device must comply with current regulations and standards. 

Do I have to chip my dog?

Chipping a dog is not mandatory, but the procedure is helpful to anyone who has a pet. It is not too expensive or problematic, and there is a good chance that it will make all the difference if your dog is lost. In addition, you should keep in mind that you may need the microchips for dogs if you plan to travel abroad with your pet. In order to obtain a passport, the pet needs an identification number. And there are two options: either microchips with gps for dogs implanted under the skin, or a traditional branding (tattoo). The latter can by no means be called a more humane method, as branding is a more painful procedure than chipping.

Id collars for dogs

Progress does not stand still and the pet industry tries to use innovations in the manufacture of accessories to the fullest extent. The invention of the id tags for dogs with QR coding, made it easier to find pet dogs. The accessory is a traditional collar with a small locket with a unique graphic code applied on it. The QR symbol contains basic information about the dog: name, age, contact information about the owners. 

In practice, id collars for dogs help to get information about a lost pooch as quickly as possible. As a rule, the escaped animal is very frightened, is running around and looking for its owner. A man, who has found a "lost pet", quickly scans the QR symbol and gets to the personal page of the dog, gets the contacts of the owners and can operatively contact the owners.

The speed of pet identification minimizes the risk of injury or even death of a dog, as pets are not adapted to street life.

Who needs a collar with a QR code?

Most often puppies and young dogs run away. They have not yet mastered the necessary knowledge of commands and do not always listen to their own instincts. Toddlers are naturally curious and may simply be distracted by something highly entertaining. With young dogs there are often hormonal storms, and the young male dog can quickly run away after a favorite "girl". In that case, having id tags for dogs makes the search much easier.
