Thank you for your concern.
Yes, she is experienced, but normally uses a different chip. I could have had the chip of my preference put in by my vet, but I'd rather have it done before she is delivered.

AKC ReUnite Indigo Microchips, in part
Manufactured by Trovan in Europe, AKC Reunite Indigo 134.2 kHz/ISO/International microchips are seamless, 100% bioglass encapsulated transponders with no plastic parts. This seamless design helps ensure the lifetime integrity of the microchip, and its parylene coating prevents migration. Our all-in-one syringe delivery device also features medical-grade needles that are arguably the sharpest in the industry.
Does that sound comparable?
