Heidi has been mirochipped for permanent identification.
"The microchip is an effective
form of permanent identification. It is slightly larger than a grain of rice and
is placed just under the skin by a veterinarian. It is unique because it has an
anti-migration cap that helps prevent movement within the pet's body. Each chip
is encoded with a unique and unalterable identification code that can only be
activated when read by a scanner. For these reasons, the AKC recommends the
HomeAgain® microchip, which is marketed by the Schering-Plough Animal Health
Corporation" (Be Prepared - Microchip Your Dog).
