Sometimes microchips get missed!

This dog was found as a stray and taken to animal control, where no microchip was detected.
After the stray hold, she was transferred to a rescue. When the rescue implanted a microchip and scanned her, an existing microchip number came up. When a dog has two microchips, there’s no guarantee which one will be detected during a scan.

Microchip Hunter Deb was able to reach Nancy after locating a current phone number connected to the name on the chip. Nancy shared that she had been searching for her dogs, there were actually two. She explained that her mother had given them away, though we don’t know all the details, but she had been looking for them.
We’re happy to share that Nancy was reunited with her dog, Princess, and that this story had a positive outcome for everyone involved.

Thank you to everyone who played a part in helping this dog find her way home, and for reaching out to Microchip Hunters!

Stories like this remind us: even when a microchip is missed, there’s still hope it can lead to a reunion.
