Report an animal's reaction to a microchip

You can report suspected incidents with animal microchips including:

• a reaction to the chip being implanted, such as injury, infection or prolonged bleeding
• if a chip’s moved from where it was implanted or has come out
• a chip that does not read properly

You’ll need the microchip number to make a report.

Contact VMD if you cannot report the incident online.
