As a breeder, I decided to take the Micro-ID training course to become a qualified microchipping practioner. It enables me to chip my puppies from 6wks without the necessity of bundling them all up and off to the vets. Much less stressful for Mum, pups and me too! It also means if they happened, by some strange quirk of fate, to be stolen it might be possible to trace them
The qualification I have allows me to chip Dogs, Cats, Rabbits and Ferrets.
There are two sizes of chip – 12mm x 2mm and 8mm x 1.4mm
The larger chips tend to be used as standard but the smaller ones are useful for smaller breeds.
It’s a quick procedure and most pets show little response. I can come to you, or you to me. I’m happy to do visits for litters or multiple pets although there may be a surcharge for travelling if you are not on the Shotley Peninsula or one of my regular routes.
