I have had both of mine micro chipped. This info hasnt scared me a bit. I know too many dogs they have had microchips for years and I've never known of any having tumors or cancer from it. My sister in law has a yorkie thats had the chip since she was old enough to get one and her dog will soon be 11 years old. Someone said something about not jumping into the new stuff, well microchipping isnt something new. I know her dog has had the chip most of her life and she is still as fiesty and plays like a young dog yet, but she has calmed down a bit since she's older, so I'm not gonna worry about it as in todays world as you know, one day something causes cancer and a few weeks or months later the same thing they find out is good for you. And sometimes the things they say are good for you now they find out is killing people so you just have to ignore some of the hype but your the only one who can decide which is hype and which isnt I suppose. But the chip is only underneath the skin. anyway, this info doesnt concern me at all. IMO, they dont know what all does or does not cause cancer yet.
