Pet Microchipping

Pet Microchipping in Ozark, MO: Permanent Identification for Lifetime Protection

Every year, countless dogs and cats go missing — and many never find their way back home. At McClure Veterinary Clinic in Ozark, MO, we provide safe, reliable pet microchipping to give your companion the best chance of being reunited with you if they ever become lost. Unlike collars or ID tags that can fall off, break, or fade, a microchip offers permanent, tamper-proof identification that stays with your pet for life.

Microchipping is a quick, nearly painless procedure that provides lifelong security, peace of mind, and higher recovery rates. Statistics show that microchipped pets are significantly more likely to be returned to their owners when found by shelters, veterinary clinics, or animal control.

This simple procedure provides lifelong security, stronger recovery rates, and peace of mind for every pet owner.

Microchipping plays a vital role in your pet’s safety and long-term well-being. Key benefits include:

• Permanent ID that cannot be lost or removed
• Increased chance of recovery if your pet is lost or stolen
• Required by many boarding, travel, and adoption organizations
• Quick, safe, and affordable procedure

Even indoor pets benefit from microchipping, as accidents, escapes, and emergencies can occur without warning.

At McClure Veterinary Clinic, we proudly use PetLink microchips by Datamars, a globally recognized and highly reliable microchipping system.

PetLink offers:

• Lifetime registration with no annual or hidden fees
• Easy online account access to update your contact information anytime

  • Microchipping is simple, fast, and safe for pets of any age. During the appointment, our veterinary team:

    • Confirms your pet’s identity and medical record
    • Implants a tiny microchip under the skin between the shoulder blades
    • Verifies that the chip is working and scannable
    • Completes your PetLink registration for seamless activation

    The entire procedure takes just seconds and does not require sedation.

Microchipping is one of the most important steps you can take to protect your pet from the unexpected. Whether your dog slips out of the yard or your cat dashes out an open door, a microchip dramatically increases the chances of a safe reunion.
