We microchip all of our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppies with Home Again microchips. All puppies are then registered with Home Again in my name as the breeder at 7 weeks of age. I maintain an account with Home Again and will remain as the original contact should an emergency arise. I will also register the microchip with AKC and CKCSC and once registrations are transferred to you as the new owner if they are contacted through the microchip number they will notify you directly.

A veterinarian injects a tiny microchip about the size of a grain of rice (12mm) beneath the surface of your pet’s skin between the shoulder blades. The process is similar to a routine shot and takes only a few seconds. No anesthetic is required.

The microchip itself has no internal energy source to harm your pet, and it will last the life of your pet. The microchip is read by passing a microchip scanner over the pet’s shoulder blades. The scanner emits a low radio frequency that provides the power necessary to transmit the microchip’s unique code and positively identify the pet's unique microchip number. HomeAgain is the only microchip on the market today that has the Bio-Bond™ patented anti-migration feature to help ensure that the microchip will stay in place so that it may be easily located and scanned with the scanner. If your pet gets lost and is taken to an animal shelter or veterinarian, they will scan the microchip to read its unique code and then notify Home Again and many times they also contact AKC if it is a purebred dog. This is the number used by HomeAgain to identify the pet and retrieve your breeders contact information, which is used to make contact and reunite you with your pet. Since I will remain as the main contact with Home Again it is important to let me know if you have an address or phone number change after you adopt a puppy from us here at Cruisin Cavaliers.
