Technology has changed over time, look at our sewing machines going out of date, but many of us have older dogs, do we know what machine was used? I sure don't.
Most of the new scanners will pick up any microchip by any company. I posed that question to my vet on Monday. 2 of our dogs are chipped with Avid and 2 are with Home Again and they all scanned with my vet's scanner.
