"I brought my corgi puppy over from Europe and when I brought her in for her first checkup, the vet did verify her paperwork with the tattoo on her ear to make sure it matched the Euro Pet Passport (she was too young to be safely microchipped). I…"

Gromit, Sparkle, and Doug replied to Robert Trudeau's discussion Microchipping my Corgi"The American Kennel Club has a micro chip service. Gromit's chipped with one of their tags. One of the things about micro chipping is that the dog can carry an extra collar tag saying that it's micro chipped, that might deter…"
Chris West replied to Robert Trudeau's discussion Microchipping my Corgi"P.S. Frosty is chipped as well as all our house cats that ever go anywhere with us. We used whatever our vet had which had a one time registration fee for the chip and then an extra $20 fee to have them entered into a national registry. The only…"
Chris West replied to Robert Trudeau's discussion Microchipping my Corgi"I would recommending calling your vet and asking what they use and why. Most vet offices will talk to you over the phone for free, and that way you are getting a professional opinion."
Anna Morelli replied to Robert Trudeau's discussion Microchipping my Corgi"I have never seen a Vet scan a dog unless asked to do so. The chip is no protection against stealing, unless you know who took the dog, then it would allow you to prove the dog is yours. Even when a dog is lost, it works marginally, as…"
Jen, Yuki & Ellie replied to Robert Trudeau's discussion Microchipping my Corgi"I agree with that. I'd like to think that Veterinarians make a point to scan all newly-acquired dogs over a certain age (maybe 5 months and older?), but I don't know that they do. It would be nice to see them start doing so,…"
Kari & Quin replied to Robert Trudeau's discussion Microchipping my Corgi"We have Home Again, You pay the vet, pay to registrar, and if you wish you can pay yearly to get their news letter and other perks but you dont have to. I don't. and you can still up date your info and it is always on file so if your dog…"
Anna Morelli replied to Robert Trudeau's discussion Microchipping my Corgi"You can use your Vet. Chips are now all readable by the same scanners (didn't use to be that way) but you should only have to pay the fee to insert the chip and then a fee to register the chip in your name - that's all. No yearly…"
Jen, Yuki & Ellie replied to Robert Trudeau's discussion Microchipping my Corgi"I also found this link over at Petfinder, which is a bit more reliable than Wikipedia. ;)"
Jen, Yuki & Ellie replied to Robert Trudeau's discussion Microchipping my Corgi"My Ellie is chipped with a HomeAgain chip, but that's because that's what my Vet happens to use. I don't know that any one particular chip is any better than another. You can take a look at this link for lots of…"
Leksi replied to Robert Trudeau's discussion Microchipping my Corgi"Try HomeAgain -- they seem to be the industry standard. There's no GPS b/c that requires a battery. Unfortunately, there's no safe way of inserting a battery into your dog's tissue that will a) last the whole life of the animal (10-20…"

Robert Trudeau commented on Sienna's group Michigan Corgi Meetup!"I heard this past weekend they had a dog fest of some sort there. a friend of mine said she couldn't believe how many corgi's were there."
Sam, Gregg & Poopdeck replied to Robert Trudeau's discussion Microchipping my Corgi"Good question, I will be interested in the answers. My vet offered one that is international but came with a pretty hefty yearly fee. My cat is a rescue and is chipped, and it can be read by my vet's scanner. So What the scoop guys???"
Elizabeth Olsen replied to Robert Trudeau's discussion Michigan Corgi owners...please help me... in the group Michigan Corgi Meetup!"That is so horrible! Reposted it on my facebook. I hope you get her back safe and sound!"
