Ironically the day that I had his visit I returned home and got a call from the original phone number associated with Rocco’s microchip. They had found a phone number and Rocco’s DOB listed in their archives and it went to a pet store about 30 miles from me. I called the pet store and apparently they only keep puppy numbers listed for 5 years and Rocco is 5.5 yrs. Old (not 3.5 as we thought) so they have no record because the owner never registered him. So he will still go to ytnr for adoption.

A side point to this thread since Mary was talking about Migraine headaches I had to share this. This whole last week I had a migraine for a whole week while dealing with this dog issue and I was miserable. Every morning I woke up with a pounding headache I wanted to pull the covers over my head and go back to bed!
A friend gave me a sample of a holographic “chip” for pain. She told me to peel it off (about the size of a dime) and place it on my upper neck. I was in so much pain I would have done anything at that point. Well within one half hour the headache subsided greatly it was just faintly there.
I went to bed with those “chips” for pain and one for rest/sleep and I was out like a light for 10 hrs. My husband said he has never seen me sleep so sound. Next morning Migraine gone and has been since Tuesday GONE…GONE…these things are a miracle!!
You can use these on Pets also. Rocco is getting neutering this Weds. So I am going to use a pain ”chip” on him to keep him discomfort at a minimum.
