I have read somehwhere that a vet would only consider removing a chip if it had failed. The dog would need to be x-rayed to locate chip, given anesthetic, have its flesh cut to remove the chip, given stiches to close the wound and the failed chip would be sent back to the manufacturer for testing. A new chip would then be inserted.
All I can say reading the above...... if you only have selfish human reasons, your a cruel b@****d to put your beloved pet through that uneccersary pain!!
