The other day I used an Avid scanner on both my dogs.... Charlie has a Home Again chip and Lilly has one from Avid.... The Avid scanner read Lilly's chip and told me it was from Avid. Then I scanned Charlie (with his Home Again chip) and it did read the number, but it couldn't tell me it was from Home Again.

I might take them into another vet that uses the Home Again scanners and have both of them scanned just to see what that one can read...
i didn't know that about the avid scanner. i figured it was like the home again scanner. Those i know won't read the avid chip number, but they will tell you it is an avid chip.
