A dog’s microchip implant wound usually heals in about 24-48 hours. The procedure needs skill, so have an experienced vet at a large, proper clinic do it.
The chip stores much information: pedigree, birth, health records, medical history, and owner contact, allowing accurate identification of your pet. A healthy dog can be chipped around 6 months of age.
If the dog is weak, wait until it is stronger before implanting.
