to everyone who disagrees with microchipping, i respect your opinion -- however i don't completely agree.
Sophie is my baby, she is two months old. While we purchased Sophie for a low price ($400), I have known yorkies to cost waaay more than that. That in itself is reason enough to cip your baby. Not including the fact that losing them would be completely devastating. No, not everyone would be honest and have the do scanned but you have to look at it this way, You have done your part as an honest owner -- they are the ones who will have to deal with God later on.
You really have to realize, though, that we are living in the year 2008. Times are changing and technology will eventually take over. Technology, however, can be very helpful if you let it -- and i completely agree that there is no harm in chipping. There may be risks, but aren't there always? To every pro there is a con in my opinion so it's basically the owners call.
Sophie goes in Friday for shots.
I will be asking my vet his outlook on chipping for her near future.
If i decide to look into it, I will arrange it when she is fixed
heck, its a small price for a piece of mind.
