And I'll wait and make sure that I get a confirmation from the database people (PETtrac) to confirm my info is in there correctly.

He did say that he's seen just a couple migrate from the injection site, but that when a vet or shelter scans an animal, they make sure to do the entire animal in case the chip moved.
About the chip migrating...Do you believe they will scan the entire dog? I question this and the possibility that the chips can be removed. Just seems to me that with all the technology today some body would come up with a better system, such as GPS...But I guess until then...we do what we have to do. I'm seriously considering a tattoo for Winston, for proof of ownership, not for tracking. Again I think I'm really getting paranoid!!!
