Want to pass along to all dog owners that Memo on Constitucion can now do microchipping. The chip can be read anywhere from Alaska to Patagonia. Since we seem to see too many (even one is too many) pets lost here it would be wise to have your dog/cat chipped.

The chip goes on an international registry. The pet can be taken to an animal shelter or vet where it can be scanned. The info on the chip will identify the owner with contact information. There are GPS chips too but they are very expensive.

I've been told that Ladron has one, but I don't know for certain.

The Ladrons have a reader and Memo has a reader. Hopefully the shelters will have readers also.

Cbob it's a simple radio emitter, about the size of a large grain of rice. It emits only a unique number that can be read by the, err, reader.
