Microchips

Foothills Animal Shelter provides cat and dog microchips for $35 each. This charge includes registration. Microchip clinics take place weekly at the Shelter every Wednesday and Friday between 3-4 pm. PLEASE GO TO OUR EVENTS PAGE TO SEE ALL OF OUR OFFSITE LICENSING, VACCINE AND MICROCHIP CLINICS IN THE COMMNUNITY! History: In 1998, Foothills Animal Shelter, along with many other area shelters, began scanning all incoming animals for microchips. A microchip is a form of permanent identification (as big as a grain of rice) that is inserted into the scruff of the animal’s neck. The procedure is as simple as a routine vaccination. When a lost or stray animal comes into the Shelter, we digitally scan each incoming animal for a microchip. If detected, the microchip will lead us to the owner’s information. A microchip is the perfect identification device because it cannot be lost or easily removed. Foothills Animal Shelter places microchips in all of our adopted dogs and cats. Along with a collar bearing current rabies and dog license, a microchip is a fantastic tool to ensure your animal will be returned to you! Please contact us for more information regarding the microchipping process.
