Microchipping is great but it's not foolproof. Microchips are not universal as there are different kinds and different scanners to go with them. It is one more way to identify your dog but it will not keep them safe. I know you'd never forgive yourself if something bad happened.
OMG that's horrible !!! This is so true and awful...but happens way more than we realize...I know someone who lost her little yorkie to a hawk and she was standing 20 feet away....the hawks dont HAVE to fly off with them - they can instantly kill them with the talons....

and Roxanne - is that you ?
