Is your YT microchiped?

[Lil_Fudgie]

Nope. No reason to. They are never left unattended, anywhere.

Bella is not, but I plan on getting it done when we have her spayed.

The breeder has microchipped my male yorkie. I pick him up this Sunday!

[diggy4]

[Yorkiesforever]

All of mine are chipped and I even chip my puppies before they leave.

Koda is not yet. But, I know for a fact Koda and our new baby girl, are getting gift certificates for it on Christmas from my Mom! I love my Mom, she always thinks of the greatest gifts! lol!

Mine is not yet! I wanted to have her microchipped on her first visit to vets for vaccination but the vet didn't recommend it as she is still too young. She said they do it at 6 month while being spayed and asleep, since my Tara cried so much even while being vaccinated and the vet said it's a lot bigger needle, the chip is size of a rice grain, now who would want thick needle like that under their skin.
But I don't know if they would put her to sleep so that it wouldn't hurt her so much, I would have it done right away.

I def. think it is a good idea. Yeah a honest person would have to take them in but if they go lost wouldn't you want to know you did everything possible to get them back. I know they will be coming up with a collar with a homing device so a satellite can actually track them right when you call in, it only available for lg to med breeds but toy breeds are next and I know I'l def. want to invest in that.

All 4 of mine are microchipped. Last week when I had my dogs at the vet for vaccinations, someone brought in a yorkie that they had found. They were going to have him scanned to see if he was chipped. He was so cute too and you could tell that he had been well cared for. He had a cute snauzer cut and was very friendly. I asked about him when I came out after our appointment but the girl at the front desk didn't know what they had found out. I sure hope he was microchipped because I'm sure his owners would love to get him back.

Lucy is microchipped. I want any advantage I can get if my baby gets lost...

[Yorkiekids]

Mine are not. Not all vets have the equipment to check, and some just don't. When they make one that's traceable like GPS then I'll get them. Just my opinion.

[domesticated08]

Absolutely!!

[midnterrt]

My vet did mention some cases of tumors growing after chipping. I was in for puppy shots. The next trip in both are getting chipped. Price is $40.00 each, however i want the spot numbed before so it may cost more. Peace of mind is worth it. I do have tags with info on the collars also.

I am still looking in to getting my lil girl chipped? If anyone has had any good out come from chipping?

In September we had a family get together for my daughter's birthday. When everyone was leaving, we believe our little Davie, 4 pounds, must have gotten out with the Grandkids. Well, long story short, we missed her less than an hour later when we were settling down for the night. Hubby and I searched the neighborhood all night, calling for her, crying...it was terrible. The next morning I went to work just to make a flier and on my way home my cell phone rang and it was a vet's office that was about 10 miles away, and someone dropped Davie off and they scanned her, got our name and number and we got our baby back. I have never hugged and kissed her so many times in all her little life as I did that day. SOOOOO, yes...get your little ones chipped!!!!
