How many people here have a pet that is microchipped? I am thinking about it but the cost is what is crazy. Some places want over 100USD for it and I really do not think it costs that much.

They run specials every once in a while in our area. Usually a few dollars from the local pound. I keep saying we are going to do it, but it never seems to happen.

I have seen some good prices and some bad ones too. I know a few places advertise when you adopt a pet with them, a random company who does the chipping but those prices tend to be the highest.

They chipped my dog when we adopted him from the shelter. It is automatic with the adoption fee which was $58. We have moved since, so I do not know how to change the info within the chip to the new address. Otherwise, I do not think I would have chipped my dog if it proved costly. I would have to find a discount someplace for sure.

I know some who have done this and you are right Whistle, most of the pet adoption centers now put chips in the animals. But like you, I wonder how the info is changed and who is responsible for doing so if you should move or maybe even give the pet to someone else?

[manny]

I thought you only had the choice to change the info when you are dealing with the company that monitors the chip. I know I have seen a few on there before.
