I'm afraid that it hurts a lot more than just getting a shot. I have had 4 pups done without being put to sleep because they are show dogs and they do not get spayed or neutered, and believe me, they sure squeeled. On one the chip cam back out when they pulled the needle out and had to be redone and the poor pup bleed pretty bad. Ask your vet to see the needle, and tell me that it would not hurt. Any time you have to use a needle large enough for something sized similar to a grain of rice, it is going to hurt. My vet charges 35 for chipping, then you have to pay 15 for the registeration with the company, either At home, or Avid, whichever one you use. |
