A.V.I.D. stands for American Veterinary Identification Devices. The AVID®microchip is a tiny computer chip which has an identification number programmed into it. The chip is encased in a smooth, strong biocompatible glass, and is small enough to fit into a hypodermic needle. Once an animal is injected with the chip, he can be identified throughout his life by this one-of-a-kind number. His identification cannot be lost, altered or intentionally removed.
 
Microchips go into the animal by way of standard injection. Those familiar with the delivery systems for vaccines and regular shots will have no problem injecting the chip. Complete step-by-step instructions are included with all products.
 
Animal shelters and animal control officers have been educated and informed about microchip identification and how it works.  Shelters use industrywide, cross-compatible scanners that read all chips operating at a certain frequency.  Once a microchip is located in an animal, the appropriate steps are taken.  If the animal is registered with AVID's PetTrac Recovery  System, the shelter will be given the owner's name.  If the animal is not registered, they will be given the name of the veterinarian or the breeder who injected the microchip.
 
Dogs and cats are injected between the shoulder blades with a deep subcutaneous (under the skin) delivery of the chip.
 
Most breeders inject the chip between the ages of five and eight weeks of age. Of course, the injection can also be done at any time after that.
 
The use of microchips satisfies the AKC’s policy for record keeping and identification. The identifying microchip number must be noted on the dog or litter record. If microchips are used as the primary means of identification, a scanner must be present at all times if there are more than 20 dogs over six months of age on the premises.
