Vets make the big bucks these days. The times when a Vet would come to the farm to help a heifer out with a difficult calving are long gone. These guys setup "pet shops" in the affluent suburbs and make a killing on procedures and meds. I couldn't help but notice Dr. Rubin's gold Rolex DateJust which lists for $10-12,000.

Pricture is a douche! What if your dog was stolen or he got away when u weren't home. I treat my dogs with a lot of love and care but today when I got home my dog was missing! I'm going to use his microchip to find him because they work!

@PurpleTheDog acrually putting a microchip in a dog collar is a good idea. putting into a dog is a very bad idea. I have done research on the implantable rfid microchip for many years now. The microchip is unsafe and in laboratory reports stats that it causes cancerous tumors in dogs. I can pull up article after article of this on the web. Typically sarcomas  arises at the site of injection in all dogs with the implants. Medical research has stated many times. implantable microchips are unsafe

@pricture You know, people steal dogs, and dogs run away. Doesn't have to be a hurricane.

@pricture im sorry but your opinion on this bothers me a lot. some people are so against modern things, "oh my dog never got a microchip and it did fine" yeah well a billion other pets got lost and didnt get back home because they didnt have one. i think you should get real.

[PurpleTheDog]

@pricture im sorry but you are being very ignorant. chipping a human is very different from a dog. a dog is ours, like it or not, they belong to a human being. and to prevent the dog from walkin off and getting lost, and ending up in a shelter, it is very good to have it chipped. the chip is friggin micro, you are being over dramatic "implant a permanent chip into your beloved pet" nothing wrong with that.

@4RFIDinfo ......ok......

# Fibrosarcomas at presumed sites of injection in dogs: characteristics and comparison with non-vaccination site fibrosarcomas and feline post-vaccinal fibrosarcomas Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale delle Venezie, Histopathology Department, Viale dell'Università 10, 35020 Legnaro (PD), Italy. Published by J Vet Med A Physiol Pathol Clin Med. 2003 Aug;50(6):286-91. Vascellari M, Melchiotti E,Bozza MA, Mutinelli F is the reference.

Also implants fail and wear out without any visible sign.

@4RFIDinfo Well thanx for the scientific explanation there, but what I'm getting at is what things like these chips are really being used for. Yeah sure it might help in some (rare) situations, but they can also be used for other, very possible sinister reasons.

Oh and srry for the late reply btw :P

@pricture

Factual correction –LF rfid can only be read from 45cm away maximum.

Also it’s the soft tissue sarcomas that sometimes appear at the site of RFID Implants that cause the problem for me. And yes I would like control over my own life, it’s called freedom.

Read the science:

So chips appear at the site of sarcomas in a range of case in a range of species.
