New Microchip Scanning Stations in Wilson County

 Lebanon, TN (10/03/2025) – Wilson County Animal Control (WCAC), in partnership with the Wilson County Emergency Management Agency (WEMA), has installed free-to-use, 24/7 pet microchip scanning stations in four locations across the county. 

The self-service scanners will be available in the next few days. They will be located in the parking lots of the following WEMA fire stations: 

  • Station 2 – Watertown – 160 South Statesville Ave, Watertown 
  • Station 4 – Lakeview – 6171 Saundersville RD, Mt. Juliet 
  • Station 5 – Gladeville – 8814 Stewarts Ferry Pike, Mt. Juliet 
  • Station 9 – Lebanon – 40 Rutledge Lane, Lebanon 

Each station includes signage with clear instructions for scanning a found pet’s microchip. These tools will help community members reunite lost pets with their families while preventing dogs from going into animal shelters, which are often full. 

“These scanners will help improve the reunification process of lost pets and their families. We know that pets belong with their people and not in kennels, so these scanners will provide a useful tool to help make that happen. We truly appreciate Wilson County Animal Control and WEMA for making this possible,” said Randall Hutto, Wilson County Mayor. 

WCAC asks that you please not pick up a stray dog and place it in your vehicle/home. This can become dangerous, as stray dogs can be unpredictable. Wilson County’s Animal Shelter is currently full. Families looking to adopt a pet are welcome to stop by and meet the dogs that are up for adoption. Wilson County Animal Control is located at 378 Dump Road, Lebanon, TN 37087 and is open Mondays-Fridays from 7:00am-3:00pm. Wilson County Animal Control can be reached at 615-444-9775 for more information.
