I am a domestic animal business and microchipping cats and dogs prior to sale as required, whose name should the microchip be in?
If the animal is not yet sold and you do not have a written agreement for the sale of the animal then the microchip must be in the name of the business or business owner and transferred to the new owner when sold. If the animal is sold or you have a written agreement with another domestic animal business for the sale of that animal then the microchip can be in the name of the new owner and you sign it as the agent of the owner. The implanter must send this information to a licensed registry within 2 days of implantation, the form cannot be given to the domestic animal business or animal owner to send in to the registry.
