A Skeptic who changed her tune

This is not a story about my dogs ever having run away for an extended period of time. This is a story about how I got them chipped in the first place. Zoe came into my life a very sick doggie and I had to get her spayed right away (she already had two litters of puppies and was half the normal weight, at 1 year old...with heartworms and a broken leg to boot). She took to her older sister Maggie right away so we always brought her along to the vet for moral support. When they asked if we wanted to get Zoe microchipped I said no way until I saw the needle...I have gotten blood taken many, many times and the needle was just as big...I had no idea how small it was and didn't know it wasn't a surgery...they did it right in front of me and she showed no signs of pain or anything. Maggie was with me so I said let’s do her too and that was also completely fine. Now all of their information is there for if something does happen to them or wants to steal them (they are so pretty...lol). They are my babies and now all of their information is right in their back in a tiny little chip I couldn't even see from over the counter. It makes me feel really safe knowing that they have it, and completely changed my tune about microchipping pets...it really is worth it, and it’s not going to hurt your babies either!
