(Smaller than
shown) The tiny microchip (12mm long 2mm wide) is injected into the dogs back by a special gun.
The microchip which carries a unique identification number, either 10 or 15
digits long is made out of inert materials to avoid rejection by the body. A
little discomfort from this procedure is experienced by the dog. However this
only lasts a few seconds.
