Fishys Friends & Microchip Clinics

Buddy ID microchips are permanent identification devices implanted just beneath your pet's skin to ensure they can always be reunited with you if lost. Each microchip is encoded with a unique number, which links to your contact information in a secure database. These chips work alongside Buddy ID’s online registration system and additional tools like the BuddyBadge QR tag for enhanced safety and convenience.

How Buddy ID Microchips Work:

1. Permanent Identification: A microchip is implanted by a vet or trained professional, providing a lifelong form of ID.

2. Unique Number: Each chip carries a unique identifier that is stored in a database.

3. Scannable Technology: When scanned, the chip displays the unique ID, which leads to your pet's registration and contact information.

4. Free Lifetime Registration: Buddy ID includes free lifetime registration, ensuring no ongoing costs to maintain your pet's record.

5. Seamless Integration: Works in tandem with BuddyBadge QR tags for quick reunification through smartphone technology.

The BuddyBadge® is a QR code collar tag designed to enhance your pet's safety by linking directly to their microchip registration. This connection facilitates quick reunification if your pet becomes lost.

By combining the BuddyBadge® with your pet's microchip, you add an extra layer of protection, making it easier for anyone who finds your pet to contact you directly and promptly.

How It Works:
Buddy ID’s free lifetime registration ensures your pet’s microchip information is securely stored and easily accessible, without any recurring fees. Once your pet’s microchip is implanted, you register the unique microchip number in Buddy ID’s database, along with your contact details and any additional information you choose to include (like medical needs or alternative contacts). This registration links your pet’s microchip to you, making it easy for shelters, vets, or finders to reunite you with your pet if they ever go missing.

Benefits of Free Lifetime Registration:

1. Cost-Free Protection: Unlike many other registries, Buddy ID includes lifetime registration at no additional cost, saving you from annual fees.

2. Easy Updates: If you move or change your contact details, you can update your information in the database anytime, ensuring your pet’s record is always current.

3. Seamless Reunification: When your pet is scanned, their microchip number leads directly to your contact details, expediting the process of getting your pet home.

4. Flexible Options: You can pair your microchip registration with BuddyBadge QR tags for added security, offering an alternative way to identify your pet if a scanner isn’t available.

5. Global Reach: Buddy ID’s database is accessible to shelters and veterinary clinics worldwide, enhancing the chances of reuniting with your pet no matter where they’re found.
