Special Offer on Microchips in June

Microchip Your Pet For Life!
 
Purton Veterinary Group is supporting National Microchip month by offering 2 great deals for microchipping your pets!

Having a pet stolen or go missing is a heart-wrenching experience for any owner. But by having their pets microchipped, owners can ensure that if their missing pets are found they will be returned to them.  Deciding to have a pet is an important decision and one that results in a commitment to that pet for its entire life. Part of being a responsible pet owner is identifying your pet permanently, for example by microchipping.

Offer 1: Identichip Biothermo Microchips @ £14.95 - these microchips are high quality and include a built in thermometer so we can tell your pets temperature by scanning them rather than by using a rectal thermometer.  Studies have shown the microchips are a more accurate way of assessing body temperature.  We believe our patients will benefit in the long run with a kinder approach to taking their temperature - During June 2009 we will implant and register these chips for your pet and save you £7.66 (normal price £22.61)


Offer 2: Standard Identichip Microchips @ £9.99 - During June 2009 we can implant a standard microchip and complete the initial registration and save you £12.62

If your pets are already mircochipped and you want to check they are working, why not make an appointment to see one of nurses free of charge. They will be able to scan your microchip to check that everything is in working order.

Microchips are an invaluable method of returning lost animals to their owners in as little time as possible. As soon as a stray animal arrives at any vets, police, RSPCA or dog warden, they are scanned for a chip. The owners' details are stored on a worldwide database, so wherever the lost animal ends up, they can be contacted within minutes.

The microchip is inserted underneath the skin quickly and painlessly with the animal conscious. They are very durable and last the whole life of the animal. They are also a necessary requirement if you are planning to take your animal abroad.
