[nagdu] Chip tag

[Nicole B. Torcolini at Home]

Lexia has a chip, and her chip tag is on her collar. Yes, hopefully the 
humane society would scan for the chip if they picked up a guide dog. 
However, I seem to recall that, upon microchipping our pet and testing the 
microchip, they had to scan more than once to find it. If the tag is there, 
and they miss the chip on the first scan, at least they might keep scanning 
until they find it. If you are willing to buy another tag, you could always 
copy the information from the chip tag to another tag. Yes, I will admit 
that the rubber microchip tag, although still on Lexia's collar, is no 
longer a circle
Just my $.02.
