Pet Microchipping Richmond Hill

Microchipping Your Pet

A lost pet is every owner’s worst nightmare, but microchipping offers peace of mind and a significantly higher chance of reunion. At Lefferts Animal Hospital, we provide fast, safe microchip implantation to help ensure your pet always has a way home.

How Microchips Work

Microchips are tiny devices, about the size of a grain of rice, implanted under your pet’s skin between the shoulder blades. Each chip contains a unique ID number linked to your contact information in a secure database, accessible by most animal shelters and veterinary hospitals nationwide.

Quick, Safe, and Permanent

Implanting the chip is a simple, virtually painless procedure that can be done during a regular exam—no anesthesia required. Unlike collars or tags, microchips can’t fall off or be removed.

Essential for Pet Safety

If your pet is ever lost or stolen, a microchip drastically increases the chances they’ll be returned. It’s especially important for pets who spend time outdoors, travel, or live in busy neighborhoods.

Update Your Info Anytime

We’ll help you register your microchip and keep your information current. Just one chip could make all the difference.
