Fi Nano Microchip for Dogs - 1-Pack - Free Lifetime Registration - Universally Scannable - Small Size…

People always talk about the best things since sliced bread.... (my ADHD would take me down a complete rabbit hole of how sliced bread became the pinnacle for all things good, but that's neither here nor there. Sorry. See?!) The POINT is that this is one of the best purchases that I've made in quite some time; and Lord knows that I purchase, so that's saying a lot. *******PLEASE NOTE (if you didn't know already), that the microchip is NOT a tracking/GPS system to where you can see your furry friend escaped to or was taken from. It is so that if your fur baby ever escapes or gets lost, if he or she is brought to a facility that has microchip scanning ability, they will be able to see your information so that you can come pick up your little escape artist. You’ll need an additional product (I recommend in conjunction with this one if you desire location tracking.) ********* Also, I used this to microchip my cat - I didn't see any warnings or indications that it wasn't safe for cat use (and I scoured this product page as well as individual sites) to make sure that it was safe for my cat. So, there's that. Moving along: VALUE FOR YOUR MONEY: you literally cannot find much else on planet earth, especially in this economy, for less than the cost of this device on Amazon; not even that fabled 'sliced bread' that we refer to within that tired cliche. (I would put the amount that I paid, but 1) prices fluctuate, and 2) I have a very strong feeling that it'd be censored out. Just know that it costs less than your favorite snack or cup of coffee.... and most likely less than your favorite brand of that sliced bread. :] ) EASE OF INSTALLATION: Another old, tired cliche- "If I can do it, so can you." (I’d insert an eye-roll emoji here, but I'm reviewing this on my laptop so let's just pretend.) Seriously, though: if *I* can successfully do this, I promise that you can, too. I PROMISE. I strongly dislike needles or anything resembling one, and I was SO worried about hurting my cat while putting this in. To make sure that I understood the directions to install this competently and correctly, I read the sparse instructions that came with this product and then watched two (2) videos for education: one on Amazon on this product page and another on a different platform. I made sure that the needle was facing correctly (beveled side up), pushed the needle in its entirety underneath my cat’s skin between his shoulder blades, quickly verified that it was indeed underneath his skin (because he didn't even FLINCH. I was more scared than he was.), pushed the plunger all of the way down, ensuring that the chip expelled and remained inserted underneath this skin, and voila! Suddenly – legitimately 30 seconds later –, there I was with my newly minted microchipped fur child and greater peace of mind. The only thing left to do after this was to scan the QR code from the card that comes inside of the envelope and enter my information should he ever get lost and need to be returned to me. I hate to say that I've been wasting money at the vet for microchip services….; so, I won't say that- veterinarians are essential. What I will say is that because this service costs eight (8) times as much at the (low cost!) vet’s office in my area compared to what I paid here on Amazon, I will only resort to this way for microchip installation for as long as it's safe. This was a phenomenal buy considering its ease of use, the purpose that it serves and my goodness- the PRICE. It actually makes me want to go have a slice of bread in its honor. Perhaps I’ll make it into a sandwich or some French toast for a little extra razzle dazzle. If my cat sneaks and darts out while I’m putting out the trash after finishing, he always comes back when he’s hungry but in the instance that someone picked him up, I know now that he is microchipped, which should make it easier to return him to me (in addition to his “I’m lost” tag with my information and his current vaccine tags on his collar so hopefully it’d be obvious that he’s not a stray). Anyway- to sum up a long story that truly was long, this was a great purchase. I believe that you’ll think so, too!

I recently purchased this at-home microchip kit for my dogs, and I couldn't be happier with it! The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and the process was much simpler than I expected. The needle looked intimidating at first, but it was surprisingly quick and minimally stressful for both me and my dog. What I love most is the peace of mind this microchip gives me, knowing that my pets can be identified if they ever get lost. The included registration process was straightforward, and I was able to update my contact information immediately. The scanner worked perfectly when I tested it, and the chip was easy to locate under the skin after implantation. I highly recommend this kit to any pet owner who wants to save a trip to the vet and ensure their furry friend’s safety. A must-have for homesteaders or anyone with multiple animals!

This may seem like something best left for a vet or veterinary Technician but if you've been taught how to give your dog subcutaneous fluids or a shot it is quick and easy. Just locate it between your dog's shoulders. The needle is large, but it is scarier for you than the dog. If you know how save a few dollars, if you are unsure do not attempt.

So small, most medium and larger animals never feel it. It's basically like giving a shot. Free registry for life of animal. Can be picked up by all universal scanners, which means getting your animal back, becomes priceless.

Hairy dogs can't be complicated but on short hair dogs it super easy and readable on all scanners.

I highly recommend. I always like to give my kitties a microchip in case anybody decides they would like to snatch my kid up. But my kitty is never in a situation to get snatched. But still, you never know.

Had our Vet put that on. Works like described.

Are you considering purchasing a pet microchip for your furry friend? Read this before you do! I recently had a troubling experience with a particular brand of pet microchips that I believe you should be aware of. The Problem: I want to emphasize one critical point: do not buy this product. My experience with these microchips from FI NANO was far from satisfactory. The issue? The microchip numbers they provided were not unique. This means that the identification number assigned to my pet was not exclusive, which could lead to serious complications in the event of a lost pet. Verification is Key: Before you decide to implant any microchip into your pet, it's absolutely crucial to verify the uniqueness of the microchip number. I only discovered the problem by using a "Microchip Registry Lookup." Imagine if I hadn't taken this step – my pet's safety and my peace of mind could have been compromised. The Double Whammy: Thinking the first experience was a mistake, I reached out to the company for a replacement microchip. Shockingly, the replacement had the same issue – a duplicated identification number. This not only raised concerns about the company's quality control but also highlighted the potential risks of relying on their product for something as important as pet identification. Final Advice: Before you even consider purchasing a pet microchip, remember this cautionary tale. The consequences of using non-unique microchips can be dire, including difficulties in recovering a lost pet and legal entanglements. Don't let convenience overshadow the safety and security of your beloved companion. In short, do your homework. Make sure the microchip you choose provides a unique identification number for your pet's sake. Don't make the same mistake I did. Your pet's safety is worth the extra effort.
