That is really weird. Harley got chipped at the shelter. Every dog there had to leave with one. We got Sylvia done when she was spayed. My vet is a small place and they not only offer it, but encourage it. Harley's was part of his $85 adoption fee and Sylvia's was $40.
After reading what Phred wrote it does make a lot of sense. Us city folks (I'm near Chicago) don't realize that every place isn't like it is here. I took Harley and Sylvia for shots last week and someone brought in a beautiful pure bred Pit puppy and said they found her. The nurse whipped out the scanner and I just thought everyone had one. I think around here vets, shelter, and police stations have scanners.
PS. the guy asked if anyone wanted the Pitty puppy since it had no chip and if my mom wasn't with me I might have left with a third dog
