    I volunteer at my local shelter and I am currently training to do behavior evaluations to help relieve some the burden the current budget cuts have out on the staff. Even overworked and underpaid, the staff there IME working with them scan the body and scan with both scanners they have. Does this mean every shelter is this way, no, but I think alot of people paint shelter workers as being kind of lazy about microchips and that is not what I have observed. Most really want the animals to be reclaimed and reunited.

    @sharronhurlbut: Does she have dew claws? yep. Sure does. I am going out sometime today or tonight and getting pictures and doing the evaluation. I will post her pic when I get back.

    <> This is generally considered not good advice for dogs like Basenjis. Unlike other dogs, they are not very forgiving with people that cause them pain. You will likely end up with a dog that becomes fearful of people reaching for his head. Often squeezing a dog's muzzle to alleviate play biting will have the opposite effect as well, as it charges a dog up even more. And FTR, rubbing a dog's face in anything is cruel, and ineffective teaching. Not one, single professional trainer that is up to date on current techniques would advocate that. There are many threads here about working to reduce puppy play biting with Basenjis. Look under the training threads.
