It's our goal to provide your pets with the best veterinary care so they live long, healthy lives.

Microchipping for Dogs and Cats in Nashville

Microchips have helped reunite thousands of pets with their families. This is why our veterinarians at Belle Meade Animal Hospital strongly recommend microchip implantation for your pet. It is the best way to ensure the safe return of your dog or cat if they are lost or missing. Microchips are tiny devices that provide a permanent identifier that is unique to your pet. These safe and inexpensive chips significantly increase the odds of being reunited with your pet in the event that they are lost.

Our veterinarians can microchip your dog or cat during their annual wellness exam. It is a simple procedure similar to a vaccination, and no anesthesia is required. If your pet was rescued from a shelter or adopted from another owner, we can also determine whether or not a microchip has already been implanted.

How Pet Microchip Services Work

Lost pets that are found by a shelter can be easily scanned for a microchip. The identifier found in this device will allow you to be contacted quickly so that your pet can return home safely. In addition to performing recoveries and reuniting pets with their owners, many chip manufacturers also have support services available 24/7 that will actively search for pets as soon as they are reported missing.

The AVMA website contains additional information and answers to frequently asked questions about microchip implantation. The Pet Microchip Lookup website is also a helpful resource for locating and reuniting owners with lost pets.

I discovered Quakertown Vet when my 19 year old cat was found after having spent 3 weeks outside. I wanted him to be seen immediately, and Quakertown Vet was able to accommodate same day. Their emergency cost was VERY reasonable, and they aren't like other places where they wanted payment BEFORE they even saw my pet. 2 years later and we had to have our same, now 21 year old cat, put down and we brought him back here. They did not charge me an emergency fee and told me they would bill me for the service that day. I had Gizmo cremated and he was returned to me in under a week. Not only did he come back in a nice box, but I received paw prints, nose prints and two glass bottles with his fur in it. It was amazing. I now have two new cats, Luna and Loki, that have both been seen here and I will continue to bring them for their yearly visits for the rest of their lives!

People are very friendly and the docs are very thorough.

No one ever wants an emergency situation with a pet, but if it happens, this team provides excellent and efficient care. You can call ahead to get your pet on the queue. The vet spoke with me at length and discussed possibilities so we could determine a treatment plan for my girl. She gave additional medications to be on the safe side and cover any contingent infections, and one of the medications is helping her feel better. She helped me get an ultrasound appointment asap, so hopefully we will soon know more and develop a long term plan going forward. Also all the helpers at the front desk are knowledgeable, kind, and patient, and understand the stress and worries of a pet parent going through medical challenges.
