Although I sympathize with people who lose there dogs or have them stolen.. I also wonder why they have not gotten them microchipped.. why wait to learn the hard way.. no one can steal your dog and keep it for long as eventually that dog has to go to a vet.. I know a women that lost her cat.. one year later the cat landed at the vet for what ever reason and the vet checked as client was new and said ya know I put this micro chip in this cat and it has been missing for a year.. just to let you know... and I am so sure that there are so many cases we never hear about...
