Personally, I would like to have any info I could get when it comes to the health of my pet so I offered other view. I didn’t expect my view to be selected for a debate as to why my view is incorrect in your thread.
Since this subject matter is for safety and not health I still stand by my view that we don’t have enough info as of yet to feel safe using a chip for *my* pets. This is a very personal decision we all have to make for our pets and I’m sure you’ll make the correct decision that is the right one for you and your pets…Good luck to you and again I’m sorry for side tracking your thread.
gracielove, I find your post insulting to say the least. If I choose not to use the chip at this time it in no way indicates that I made my decision solely out of baseless fears. I based my decision on conflicting and incomplete or short term studies along with the reports of cancer/tumors that are being reported. I can't dismiss those concerns at this time. Since this product is for safety issues there is no reason for me to be made to feel bad for choosing not to implant.This in no way makes your opinion promoting it's use any more valid than mine for not using it. I'm just being cautious..... This is the last I will post in this thread, I'm sorry again to the OP. |
Well, feel free to feel insulted if that is the way you take it. I said nothing in my post about "baseless fears. " I said I choose to trust my vet who is a well educated woman who keeps up on all the research. These days you can find research to support whatever view you choose to take. I choose not to live in fear. I also said NO ONE should be made to feel badly about the choice they make. You, however, chose to be insulted by a statement that was in no way intended to offend anyone. It is my opinion. It may be contrary to your opinion but it is you who choose to take offense. Have a wonderful day.
