Question microchip

With so many yorkies getting lost latly, I have being thinking about microchipping trixie. The only problem is that most people I know, use avid. For that reason, I had my mind set on avid myself. I think that it must be good since so many people buy that one. What makes me doubt my dessition is this article :fact thatOnly veterinarians can implant HomeAgain™ chips. AVID® chips can be implanted by shelter personnel, individuals, or veterinarians. Breeders often use the AVID® system because the company offers incentives to chip entire litters, but puppy buyers should be aware that the scanners used by many veterinarians come from HomeAgain™ and cannot read the number on AVID chips. Costs vary with these systems depending on the number of dogs owned and whether the dog is enrolled in the national database. please help me make up my mind
