Gps Dog Tracking System
Im trying to get my dog micro chiped.?
I just took my dog to the vet to get her shots and i realized this booklet ResQ a pet tracking system. I wanted to know if your pet has one if she had any symptoms, or just your thoughts on this product or if theres something better out there? I know the prices vary. But i am a little confused because the ones i was reading online were $500+ i go to my vet and there charging around $50 so they are different i just dont understand what the difference it. Is a ResQ chip kind of a GPS in a dog you call the vet or who ever and type in a number and you can find where your dog is? kind of what they have in cell phones. Or would you have to wait for someone to pick the dog up an officer or any kind person and take the dog in which then you would have to wait for to happen. So is this a good thing to have or not? I just need some clarification is all.
thanks

The resQ microchip is similar to all others. It is not a gps system, rather a permanent tracking i.d. – the chip is about the size of a grain of rice with a number in it and is implanted under the skin between your pets shoulder blades. It stays under the skin it the spot it was inserted and doesn’t travel to other places in the body. If your pet is lost you would have to wait until someone found her. Most vet offices, shelters, pounds, and police station have a microchip scanner and can either track the number found to you or the facility that gave it. It is awesome to get your pet microchipped because suppose they were lost and their collar came off or they went far away, the microchip is their permanent i.d. and way back home to you! Microchip insertion plus registration can cost anywhere from $20 – $75 depending on where you live and where it’s done. I am all for microchipping pets! Mine are microchipped and I have seen dozens of pets returned safely with the help of having one.
ADD: It is simple to do but might I suggest, since you have a small dog that probably has a lower pain tolerance, ask your vet or whoever about numbing the area of insertion before actually giving the microchip. It is a rather large needle and I would hate for it to be a painful experience for her or if she isn’t spayed yet you could do it then while she is asleep, she wouldn’t feel a thing! Just a suggestion (that’s what we do at the clinic I work at)
