So helpful - thank you for doing this!!

I used Banfield the 1st year of Marcel's life - and when it was time for his neuter, I wanted him chipped. Because of the different types of scanners out there, they require that you put TWO different chips inside, with 2 different frequencies - so you're covered either way. While I don't love having 2 chips in Marcel - I do feel safer - esp. after reading that story you just shared. HEARTBREAKING.
