C'mon Gary, why would anyone want to bother with all of this crap? Chip implants are already in millions of pets. It's simple, cheap, and there's no work for the owner.
And there are several standards which are NOT compatible. Simply putting a chip in your pet (or child) is not sufficient to guarantee their return.
I would really like to see some statistics on the number of "lost children" who have suffered (any given incommodation) exclusively due to their inability to be positively linked with some True Idendity. Most of the English-speaking children with which I'm aquainted can answer the question "What's your name?". - -- Roy M.
