Hi,
None of my dogs leave this property without a chip. I have had 2 dogs
returned to me because of the chips. One was after 5 years and the other poor
baby, I got called on twice in 11 years. The 5 year old I had placed with a
family and after several years they acquired another dog. Well, 2 dogs were
too
much for them to handle, so after 4 1/2 years of being in their family, they
decided that Harley was the one they would let go. They sold him to a
farmer. Well, most farmers treat their dogs as livestock. Harley ran away
and
somehow ended up in the ghetto in Chicago. The farmer never called anyone to
report his dog lost. Animal Control picked him up and just before they would
have euthanized him, they scanned him and called me. I always leave the
chips in my name. I was able to rescue him from Animal Control.
The other poor girl I had placed when she was 18 months. She had a sad
life. Animal control called me when she was about 9 years old (again the
ghetto
of Chicago) and said they had her. I called the last people that had her
(please do not get me started on them) and they said they gave her to this
"loving, caring" home. Well, the loving caring home took 3 days to get her
out
of Animal Control. Chicago Animal Control would not allow me to get her as I
was not the "owner". I wanted this poor girl back with me, but the only
number I had to this "loving" home was a cell number. They NEVER picked it up
when I called. So I had to hope that all was ok with her. Well, just last
year I got a call from Animal Control near Iowa. My poor baby was there. How
she went from the "loving" home to Iowa was a mystery. I explained the
situation to the Animal Control Officer and since they were a small town, they
said
they would consider "me" the owner and released her to me. We did figured
out why she was in Iowa, she was purposely dumped there. The poor baby was
full of mammary tumors. She had cancer. I was able to give her some happy
time with us, which I will be forever grateful for and then I had to put her
down. I will never forget that. I kept telling her I was sorry, not for
having
her go to the Rainbow Bridge, but for the horrible life she had. But I am
grateful for the chip as other wise she would have spent her last days in a
run at Animal Control and crossed over with no one holding her, telling her
she was loved.
All my dogs are chipped, the lives they save are worth their weight in gold.
