Permanent Connection for Your Lost Pet
A collar and ID tag can fall off. A microchip doesn’t. Microchipping is one of the simplest, most affordable things you can do to give your pet a permanent connection back to you if they ever get lost. At Animals of Eden Veterinary Hospital, we provide microchipping in Brevard as part of our commitment to keeping pets safe and reuniting them with the families who love them.
How Microchipping Works
A Quick Procedure for Permanent Identification
A microchip is a tiny device — roughly the size of a grain of rice — that’s implanted just beneath the skin, typically between the shoulder blades. The procedure is quick and very similar to a standard vaccine injection. No anesthesia is required, and most pets tolerate it without any noticeable reaction.
Each microchip contains a unique identification number. When a lost pet is found and brought to a shelter, rescue organization, or veterinary clinic, staff use a handheld scanner to read the chip. That number is then checked against a pet recovery database, which connects back to the owner’s contact information.

What You Need to Do After Microchipping
Keep Your Contact Information Updated Online
The microchip itself doesn’t do much good without current registration information behind it. After your pet is chipped, you’ll need to register the chip number through a pet recovery database and keep your contact information up to date. If you move or change your phone number, updating that information is essential.
We’ll walk you through this process after your pet’s microchip is placed to make sure you leave knowing exactly what to do and where to go to register your pet’s chip.
