Can you track your pet if they have a chip implanted in them??

Question

I mean is'nt that the whole point of having those chips put in them?? My ex has my dog & we are inseperable ,she won't let me see her and we are both miserable w/out eachother!

Answer 1

Not really, the point of the chips is that if your dog gets lost and found by someone and taken to the vet or sent to a shelter, you hope that the shelter and vet will scan him, and then compare the number w their database and call you to let you know they have it.

Unfortunately, there is no GPS tracking device or anything like that... wish there were :-(

Answer 2

If the chip is registered in your name, legally it's yours, report it stolen and have the microchip register updated to reflect it as stolen, she won't be able to do a thing with the dog and if you let the police know, they can track it down for you.

Answer 3

Yes, but you need the phone number and paper work of the company that you got the chip from.....or the vet that implanted it--- call and tell him your dog is lost and they will call the company and locate your dog

Answer 4

No, the chips are not tracking devices where it gives off a beeping signal and you can use a monitor to see where your dog is. Here's an article about microchipping.

Answer 5

No, the chips are only for identification, they are not radiotransmitters or GPS devices. Sorry - technology hasn't gotten that far yet! Maybe there is a special collar you can buy that has that ability?

Answer 6

Answer 7
