yorkietalkjilly, no disrespect meant but the one of the reasons I felt that my opinion was dismissed and was not considered as you stated is because Nancy looked at one link and stated that it looked to be connected to commercial breeders and dog fighters. If that was true I would want to know that. But the statement was made with no reasons as to why the statement was made. I felt it reflected very negatively on me since I posted the link. I felt it made me look like I was providing unreliable information and hers opinion or statement was correct. As of yet there is no proof to the accusation, it appears to be run by someone who is very concerned about our pets health...Until I find out otherwise I don't think it should have been discredited like that..... |
Now I didn't take it that way as a reflection on you but taking on the position or credentials of that website - not you. You pointed it out and passed it on to us for consideration is good faith. I for one want to know it all so if people don't find out things for us to look at and consider, we may not know until it is too late to be helpful. If I passed on something to this forum that I didn't produce but wanted others to consider, that is no reflection on me unless that website is promoting something very bad for dogs - something like that. But however weird it might seem, I want to at least be made aware and then if I have enough knowledge or position to comment, may do that, such as Nancy did.
We are all no doubt watching the info about microchip side or bad effects but until there is a real consensus by a good deal of respected peer review veterinary groups about chip-produced tumors in dogs, I think we do want to be circumspect about info out there that might prevent some from considering chipping. But I know we are all watching as anything comes out and looking at each article and source very very closely. I pray the chips never are proven to be really harmful as they are such a good tool in helping reunite dogs and families!!!
