Default Microchipping Your Pets

We always have our pets microchipped when we adopt them. We recently moved out of state and we had to take all 4 of the dogs in to a new vet for their annual vaccines. I asked the vet to scan them so they could have their microchip # on file. One of our shepherds, Cooper, who we have had for 5 years did not scan for a chip! We watched Cooper get microchipped and had a positive scan at the shelter when we adopted him 5 years ago. Chips can migrate out of the skin if not inserted correctly. Just wanted to pass this on. I intend on having them scanned at their annual appointments from now on.
