As a loving pet parent, the thought of being separated from your fur baby is probably a frightening one. Unfortunately, pets get lost more often than most people realize. Even the best-trained pet could take off if they get hurt or become frightened, and it only takes a second for a cat to dart out the front door or for a dog to slip under a fence to go explore the neighborhood.

Having your pet microchipped significantly increases your likelihood of being able to reunite with your beloved companion if you ever get separated. The procedure takes only a few seconds and is similar to getting a shot in terms of pain. At Weston Lakes Animal Hospital, we offer microchipping in Weston and the surrounding areas and highly recommend it for all of our patients.
