1, chip appearance
Dog chip is a kind of circuit board similar to the size of rice grain, usually round or oval. It consists of a chip and an antenna. Some chips have a small ceramic chip antenna. The material of the chip is usually glass or ceramic with good biocompatibility.
The chip size is about 1 1mm* 1mm, and its weight is only a few milligrams. It is very small and light, and will not have any influence on the dog's body. Usually, a label or film containing chip information will be attached to the bottom of the chip.
2. Coding of the chip
At the time of chip manufacturing, each chip will be given a unique code. This code is a combination of numbers and letters.
Chip coding usually consists of 15 digits and letters. ISO standard is adopted to ensure the uniqueness of chip coding in the world. By scanning the chip or inputting the code, you can easily get the dog information, such as registration information, vaccination records and so on.
3, the function of the chip
The main function of the chip is to help the owner find the lost dog. When the dog is lost, we only need to scan the chip to get its code, and then we can find the corresponding registration information in the national database, so as to retrieve the dog. In addition to finding lost dogs, the chip can also be used to record and manage dog health information, vaccination records, registration information and so on.
4, chip installation
The chip is installed by a professional pet doctor. The operation is very simple and does not require anesthesia. The doctor injects the chip into the dog's neck with a syringe, and at the same time, he will put a label on the chip to indicate the chip coding information.
It should be noted that the information must be registered in time after the chip is installed, and the dog information must be entered into the national database. In this way, when the dog is lost, it can get its information through the chip and find the dog.
