Microchipping

Under Irish law (Microchipping of Dogs regulations), all dogs must be microchipped and registered on an approved central database by 12 weeks of age. Microchipping of cats or smaller mammals is also strongly recommended as it provides permanent identification and gives lost or stolen pets the best possible opportunity of being reunited with their owners. Valley Veterinary offers microchipping at home — convenient and stress-free.
