After 2 years in development, we began production of the original Mini Chip in late 2013. Designed specifically for pets, this chip truly revolutionized the implant procedure. Standard microchips have in the past required a 12 gauge needle to implant, but the new Mini Chip is delivered through a slim sharp 15- gauge needle.

This makes a huge difference for the animal.

The chip is only 1.4 mm x 8 mm,  much smaller than a grain of rice.  The chip has been placed in hundreds of thousands of pets of all ages and breeds.  As designed, the readability of the chip is excellent.  The implant procedure causes little to no discomfort…even in 6 week old miniature breeds, kittens or small exotic species.

Be careful when you are considering other brands of so called mini chips. Unlike ours, many of these were designed for lab animals, and never intended for use in pets. They have a very poor read range and will usually warn of animal weight limits.

Our exclusive Mini Chip is ‘Tiny but Mighty’ and was tested in thousands of companion animals – large and small – before it was released.
