Yes , it sound alright . I am doing all the microchipping at my home and I have the scanner . You can ask her if she have a scanner to read it . you'll just have to write the number of the microchip .
P.S. you don't have to buy a scanner .

Gypsy Rose and Gizzie Chavi are both microchipped for two reasons:-
a. So that if they get lost they will hopefully be returned
b. It was mandatory under the European Pet Passport Scheme
No problem at all having them done (the vet did both ours). $15.99 is an excellent price! We paid £20 per dog. (not sure of the rate of exchange without checking!) Ana xx :aimeeyork

I have mine chipped it doesnt hurt them i think its a good ideal. tatto seems like that would be harder on them ?

Archie's been micro-chipped. Gypsy Rose, if I'm not mistaken, if I was to ever take Archie to Ireland (where my boyfriend is from), he would have to be micro-chipped even though he's from America.

but important...make sure that you send the registration in! without it, microchipping is useless.

i want to get my babies microchipped, but i have 3 so that'll be a heck of a lot of $$$.. and not everything where i live is cheap. although my doggies stay in my room during the day behind a door barrier and with someone always watching, i still just want to be safe! :p

Bella came microchipped from the breeder. I gave the new vet the microchip number as well.

Lost Yorkie
 

Yes, yes, yes. Get a chip. One day we were on our way to the store when we saw a yorkie running down the sidewalk with his head up high and looking confused. It was a busy arterial. We stopped and had quite a bit of difficulty catching him. He was frightened and dirty, needing combing. We could not find any identification so we took him to the local animal shelter. We told them we would come back to get him if no one called to claim him. It so happens that the owners called just a couple of hours before his time was up. If someone does not claim a lost dog it can be euthanized or adopted out. We were relieved to hear the news. If this lost dog had been microchipped his owners would have been called immediately by the shelter.

If our little Wiggle Wolf ever got lost we would probably sell our house to get him back. It is like loosing a child.

:thumbup:

Lily came from the breeder microchipped. It makes me feel better knowing she is.

Both of our babies are microchipped because it covers a far wider area than a tattoo. A tattoo only covers your city and sometimes provice/state, but a microchip is good for all of north america and a large part of Europe too. Because we travel so much, this was the best choice for us.

Finnigen is microchipped
 

My breeder had it done before I brought him home. She recorded the number for me with all his immunization info. And when I took him for his first check up/second shots the vet checked it and made note of the number in his chart.

I was reading somewhere that we (Canada) have one of the best databases for pets. That made me feel good. And I think it's cool... can't wait until they come up with gps technology for these microchips (what do I know they probably already have that)

Both of mine are done my Noah and my Springer William

I hope the rules as to microchipping are different to what they are here in the UK.
I was gonna get buddy microchipped then we had a story over here about a family that had lost their cat that had been chipped, a year later they were told it had been found but they couldnt tell them where it was cos they would be breaking data protection and privacy laws????? anyway the people that had found it didnt want to give it back cos they have had it for a year, so they are now all fighting over who gets to keep the cat.
Put me off getting Buddy chipped, whats the point if they cant tell you where your pet is??? crazy huh!!!!
Also we've had over here some cases where people have stolen a pet and tried to cut the chip out the animal themselves which is really awful!!! :mad:
so i'm still deciding if its worth it or not :confused:

I have put off the microchip due to some info I found regarding site cancers, I wanted to wait to see if I could find anymore info on it. Have any of you heard about this?

Don't do it to them while they are awake
 

I have been wanting to MicroChip Daisy, Pochi and Choppi and when I took Dsisy in for her shots a couple of weeks ago I figured that would be a good time to do it and the Vet said for dogs her size, she usually would do it when they are asleep (ie if they are being spayed/neutered) since the needle was big. Well I saw the needle and almost said forget it but instead I held Daisy down...boy I wished she was asleep. Although she only yelped for maybe 10 secs it seemed like forever and it looked so painful. You could see the crescent shaped mark on her back and it bled a little from the needle. I felt so bad and held her and she didn't want to let me go. :(
Well seeing the pain in her eyes, I promised myself I'd wouldn't have Pochi or Choppi go through that so a last week I took Pochi in to get his teeth cleaned and since he would be asleep, I thought it would be a perfect time to get him chipped! I'll get Choppi done too when I get his front dewclaws removed (breeder only got his back legs done). Neither Pochi or Daisy seem to have any problems with the chip.

I have chosen not to have them wear the ID Tag from the Avid MicroChip instead I have their dog tags to say:

<Dog's Name>
$$ Reward $$
phone number
AVID MicroChipped

That way if they are found (god forbid) they will know to check them.

I have been thinking about it too. My negative thought is like this: If you find a $1000 bill on the street, who is going to give it back? So, not very many people would give back a Yorkie, if they found one.
