Microchipping
St. Augustine

Microchip Implantation

The quick and simple process of microchipping in St. Augustine involves inserting a chip under the skin between the shoulder blades. The chip stays in place and is relatively painless for your pet.

When to Microchip

Puppies and kittens can be microchipped at 6-8 weeks old, and adults can be microchipped anytime. It’s convenient to combine microchipping with other procedures like spaying or neutering.

If You Adopted a Pet From a Shelter

Many shelters and rescues routinely microchip animals before adoption. If you’re unsure, our team can scan your new pet to check for a chip.

Registering and Updating the Chip

Register the chip with your contact details to ensure effectiveness. Update your information if you move to avoid delays in reuniting with your pet.

What Happens if Your Pet Gets Lost?

Vets, shelters, and animal control facilities can scan the chip to find your contact info and notify you, ensuring your pet’s safe return.
