MicroChip I was wondering who uses what MicroChips and/or which ones are suppose to be the best. For the most part my baby is always with me but just to have that extra added security of a microchip in case something was to ever happen...I feel is a very important investment. :exclaim: |
Avid and home again are the most common ones. I dont know which one is better than the other. Mine have home again |
Yea the vet down here in Auburn I go to has the Home Again chip...Im not sure what my family vet has. Can any vet read any microchip or just Home Again vets read home again chips, etc?? |
No the home again reader can only read home again chips and vise versa |
Alrighty...Thanks!!:thumbup: |
Mine has Avid, but I hear there are different readers at different vets, so I don't know how in the world that would work. It was in him when I bought him. |
i know the vets around here have both scanners for avid and home again. these are the two most popular brands |
There is a European avid chip that is more universal and can be read by more scanners. But most vets have both. Also, i know that the microchipping companies provide scanners to shelters free of charge. That gives me some piece of mind. |

Avid has a universal chip that can be read by most scanners. It costs the same, you just have to request it. |
