SMILES...you're a girl after my own heart. Okay, Chatty...please explain to this partial blonde...what is chipping? Is that when a microchip is inserted that has pertinent data on it and details kept in a computer database?

If so, I'm not sure how I feel about it. I guess I would need more info on it to see what all is involved. And if I'm correct in what I think it is, I would have never thought of the "humans being next" thing....Whoa! Talk about big brother! But for a homeless animal, or one that's been mistreated...it COULD bring the culprit to justice...yes? Am I even on the right track?

Lastly, yes I've heard of that beautiful breed Chatty. How fortunate you are to have one in your home. Well, except for the size! ha! There goes the couch! ha! But I know you will be taking care of this poor dog like it was a baby.
