That's the exact reason why you should have your dog chipped because they just might scan for the chip. I can guarantee if I found a dog I would have it scanned, first thing...but if there are no tags and no chip then what? If your dog is stolen and you spot it somewhere that chip may be the only proof you have that it's your dog. As for the chip moving around, when my vet scanned my boys to be sure the chip read they scanned over the entire body, not just the shoulder area...that scanner will pick up the chip on a small dog even if it moved some. I guess it isn't for everyone but I know it did give me a little more peace of mind after I had the boys done. |
and i think not everyone one in the world is like you caring and capable of getting a dog scanned, i guess its really where you live, IMO but i really do wish like lets say my little layla were to get lost and had a chip, for someone to take her and get her scanned, but what are the odds of someone finding a lilttle 3 month old silky 2lbs, and not wanting to keep her? its slim.
because im sure with her walking alone 2 blocks in the street someone would of taken her home and kept her already, in those two blocks no vet, nor a rescue nor a human society would of showed.
