I need to take Auster to the shelter and have them check to see if her chip has migrated. "Dog breeding must always be done by a dog lover, it can not be a profession." -Max v Stephanitz

I am also contemplating a tattoo but wonder if there is an age limit to due possible ear cartilidge damage or something like that. One ear is floppy right now from teething anyway but I don't want to do any permanent damage. Steve Scott

One of my hunt terriers has a chip down in his shoulder now and when I asked someone to read his once, she couldn't find it. I didn't tell her at first that it slipped and most will just run the wand over the back and shoulders of the dog. If the chip travels, you might be out of luck. Have your vet scan it every time you go in. old dogs LOVE to learn new tricks

And yes her ear is tattooed, but with hair you have to look for it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> Butch Crabtree kennel vom Avoyelles
