The local Animal Warden was in the area (there used to be quite a few roaming dogs around us), he picked her up & scanned her & brought her back home. We would have been heart broken if she had disappeared for good that day. Mine both are chipped & wear ID tags 24-7.
No but I have had one of my microchipped dogs not returned to me. Check out post number 26. That is why I keep tags on my dogs 24/7
