A real reminder from one of our recent patients… 🐾
After treating a dog for injuries following a dog fight, we found something unexpected: the pet’s microchip had fallen out after the trauma.
This is very uncommon, but it serves as an important reminder that microchips aren’t something we should “set and forget.”
At your pet’s annual wellness visit, ask us to scan their microchip. It only takes a few seconds to confirm it’s still present and can be read by a scanner.
While you’re at it, take a moment to verify that your contact information is current with your pet’s microchip registry.
Don’t have a microchip yet? Ask us about it! We offer microchip implantation and would be happy to answer any questions about the process.
We hope your pet is never lost, but if they ever are, a working microchip with up-to-date information gives them the best chance of finding their way home. ❤️
