Dog Chips for stray dogs?
Would you or have you put a chip in your dog to find it in case it goes stray? Just wondering if people have been doing this.

Just my opinion...
I believe that EVERY puppy/dog should be microchipped. Every year, thousands of dogs are lost. A chip would allow any shelter or vet to determine who the lost dog belongs to and to be able to reunite them with their owner.
Even if a dog has met with a bad ending (hit by a car and killed, etc.) at least the owner would know what happened to their dog instead of forever wondering...

I have all my dogs chipped, at the very least all dog owners should have a collar + tag for their dog(s), including the rabies and any license (per local laws/regulations.)
Not to toot my own horn but I offer personalized dog tags at under 6 bucks and would be happy to ship them for free to anyone who needs one, or maybe even provide them for free if you really can't afford them
