Does Microchipping Really Work?
As an example of microchips at work, recently one of our employees found a cat in the Target parking lot. She took him home for the night and the next day we checked for a microchip, thankfully he had one! Unfortunately, when we contacted the microchip company, we were given a contact number for the owner that was no longer in use. Rather than leave it there, we did a little more detective work and was able to find the veterinary clinic where the chip was inserted, in San Diego, CA! When we contacted the clinic, they said it was an intern that had worked for them 10 years ago! With an internet search of the owner’s name, we found a vet in Springfield, MO with the same name. We called the Springfield clinic, knowing it was a long shot that a cat found in Lee’s Summit, MO with a chip inserted in San Diego, CA could possibly belong to an owner in Springfield, MO. When contacted, she was elated that we had found her cat that had been missing for over a month! While this is a great example of how microchipping can work, it also serves to show how important it is to keep your contact information updated when you move.
Chipman Road Animal Clinic is ready to provide all the microchipping needs for the pets of Lee’s Summit. Call us today to schedule an appointment to have your pet microchipped.

The sad fact is, 90% of lost pets without an id never find their way home. No pet owner wants to endure the agony of wondering where your pet is, if they are ok, and when you will see them again. With a pet microchip, you are giving your pet the best chance they have of coming home again.
Chipman Road Animal Clinic partners with HomeAgain to provide microchips connected to a large pet recovery service. HomeAgain has helped to reunite over 2 million pets with their owners! An animal tracking chip functions as 24-hour protection for your pet, making it possible to find them quickly in the event they are lost. Not to be confused with a tracking device, microchipping cannot tell you where your pet is at any given time. If your pet is lost and is taken to a vet clinic or animal shelter, the clinic can scan the pet id microchip, which will provide them with your pet’s unique id number. HomeAgain will then contact you to notify you of your pet’s location. Your contact information is not accessible to anybody outside of HomeAgain.
A microchip is about the size of a grain of rice and is inserted beneath your pet’s skin between their shoulder blades. It is a permanent id that cannot be lost or removed and never becomes degraded so it is not readable, unlike a collar or tags. Insertion is a very simple procedure that requires no anesthesia and is similar to an injection or shot. A HomeAgain microchip is a vital piece in being reunited with a missing pet.
After the microchip implant has been inserted, to fully protect your pet Chipman Road Animal Clinic will register your contact information with the HomeAgain National Pet Recovery Database so that you can be reached in the event your pet is found. You will need to update your information any time you move or change phone numbers.
When you realize your pet is missing, you can contact the Lost Pet Specialists at HomeAgain 24-hours a day, either by phone or through their website. They will assist you with creating a Lost Pet Alert and help you with the process of searching for your pet.
At Chipman Road Animal Clinic, we not only insert a pet chip, but also provide pet microchip lookup services. If you have found a lost pet, we check to see if the pet has a microchip and hopefully reunite them with their family!
