Got to the vet to see Maltese a bit ago.  I got the most messed up news from the vet office too.  The new chip came out.  They checked it today to make sure it was still ok.  The vet is calling AVID about the issue of the disapearing chips.  Let you know what happens when I found out more.

Hi, this is Shannon.  I am the guy who is the owner of the Great Dane that was at the shelter.  I was there this AM before anyone showed up for work.  When the Dog Catcher showed up, I told him I was there for my dog.  He said he would be right back.  When he came back, he told me there was a problem.  He told me he had been adopted and was going to be picked up today.  I told him they have the problem, not me.  I informed him that Maltese has a chip and a tat.  The guy was blown away.  He said that they should have scaned him and even found the tat.  Well, when the ladies of the shelter showed up, the informed me they did scan him.  So, they got both of the scanners out and rescaned him.  No chip found!  I then told them about the tat.  She said that she looked in his ear and mouth, but didn't think to check his inner right leg.  She said she will never make that mistake again.  Well, I got him back and he is at the vets for a complete check up.  The vet scanned him and didn't find the chip, so he re-chipped him for free.  He will be staying with the one person I trust, besides myself, Susan the breeder.  She has a bunch of Danes and is a wonderful breeder.  I thank GOD that Cricket e-mailed the pics to Susan.  Because people like Cricket and Susan, My 4yr old pup is ok and still INTACT!  Thanks again Cricket, your awesome.  I will post pics of him soon.  I have to goto work now.

Thanks, Shannon and Maltese
