If you get a dog from a shelter, already chipped. It will list the shelter as the dog 'owner'. The shelter will give you the information about the chip. Mine came with a collar tag to identify which chip company it is. The new owner should contact the chip company to update their data, should be done whenever you move, too. If the chip is not updated and a lost chipped dog is traced back to the animal shelter, the shelter should be able to find the owner thru their adoption records. Their are various manufacturers that all use different readers, but if a rescuer knows the dog has a chip, efforts can be made to find another reader. Microchips are also used for livestock, zoo animals,monitored wild animals, etc. I think they are one the greatest ideas to save animal's lives.
