Maravilhosa came to me at 8 weeks..
yup found out at 9 pm that she was on the plane from brazil.. and she was already microchipped.. that I was glad about but since she only weighed 1.5 pounds I could feel it.. as she grew I couldn't,, but I do so believe that they need to be microchipped. It is easy to lose a dog.. even the best of us who have all the gated yards.. microchip brought kandie home to us in her getting out two hours later..anne
