Just some remarks for USA pet owners - not a particular question:
My casual impression of pet microchip scanners was that they detect pet microchips - meaning I had the simplistic idea that there was some standard for pet microchips and that all scanners would detect all chips. However, in researching the specs for buying a scanner, it turns out that the USA, we have competing formats.
