My 2 year yorkie's chip is migrating, and our Vet told me to contact the people that implanted the chip, she said they should pay for the surgery to reimplant the chip. I called and they said they wouldn't pay. Not sure what to do. I don't have the money to pay for the surgery myself. wondering if there is someone that would know who to contact about this problem. thank you
and I would truly appreciate any feedback.

Have a wonderful day everyone

Since they are implanted right under the skin, there is a chance of them migrating down the leg or around the neck. Lacy's has stayed right where it was implanted

Oh wow!!! That's really scary since I do feel Koda's around the upper shoulder, Can you contact legal services or even make a big deal about it with the news, etc....
