What brand microchip do you use? I know we've discussed this before, but after Uni's recent trip to the vet, I am thinking of implanting another chip in her. Here's why:
She has an AVID chip. When I got her, I received info from the "breeder" about how to register her, and I did, through Home Again. I thought HA was just a registry site, and they did take the AVID chip number.
Now when I asked the vet about the chip, he showed me how they scan and what shows up. He said Uni's chip came up as AVID and number xxx-xxx-xxx. Vet says they would then call AVID and see if there was any owner info. I said I registered through HA and not AVID. AVID does not have an online registry. So he said I should re-register directly through AVID. If they were to pick up Uni, why would they call HA if she had an AVID chip? Makes sense.
So should I get another chip company implanted and register with them? I read a few online reviews on AVID and most do not like that you cannot register online, or even change info online. You must do it through snail mail and checks.
Thoughts?
