Microchips

What if they were new breeders to the CKC? If it doesn't say so on the website then how would new breeders know? You also fail to take into account there is a possiblity they never received a letter. Things DO get lost in the mail from time to time. Also, if the CKC accpeted Sheena's chip, and it was not the "proper" one, then why would they stop to think or wonder about any other brands.

I would be upset too. The CKC ought to have this information available on the website, not just a letter sent out 2 years ago as reference.

She did not disparage the CKC, she simply stated that the information should have been on the site, which it should; however, it seemed she was more aggravated with the company she bought the chip from, and well she should be. She was just venting her frustration with the situation, which is perfectly fine.

They accepted Sheena's chip because I assume she was registered before the year/05, she is over 3 yrs of age. When you belong to CKC you always talk about things at meetings and dog stuff, so it would have been mentioned. I've been to many dog shows in /05 and everyone talked about it. I attend all our club meetings and it was mentioned there for many meetings, clubs just do that. Since no one else had trouble with this before I guess CKC thought it wasn't necessary to add it to their site or maybe forgot to, thinking they had. You have no idea of the workload they carry, it's an easy thing to overlook. I don't check their site that often, maybe it is there.
I just didn't like the tone of the post is all, makes our CKC look irresponsible. No one ever talks about the hard work they do.
Didn't understand why she would go to another company unless she thought she could save money, they are cheaper than CKC but I would only deal with CKC if I had a litter.She must have spoken to other club members who would have mentioned it. We're a big family and we all look out for everyone's interests. In any case, was just defending our club .
