First off- Let me just say, Yes, I know it was irresponsible.
I have a male and a female, The male is my husbands and no matter what I tell him about getting him neutered, he doesn't listen- Well someone I know gave me a little yorkie girl they found, vet estimated that she was about 6-8 months when I got her. We tried to find the owner but no one stepped forward. When I took her in I made an appointment to have her spayed about 7-8 weeks later because she was skin and bones when we got her and the vet wanted to get her weight up before surgery. Well she went into heat, we were keeping them separated via the crate/rotate method but my idiot of an ex room mate let them out while I was at work one day (hence why shes my ex room mate) and they tied. So fast forward to now and I have 3, 2 week old puppies. I've already had their tails docked and dew claws removed, but I have a question about microchipping them.
I already have homes lined up for 2 of the pups and I was wondering if I can microchip them in both my name and the new owners names? That way if they ever get lost or surrendered to a shelter I can be notified so I can pick them up? I know that I am responsible for these babies the rest of their lives and I would hate for them to ever end up in a shelter.
