When I dropped the dog off I made a point of explaining to the owner how much simpler this ordeal would have been for both of us if the dog had tags and if the chip were registered.

He replied that they had been at the vet within the last month and specifically had the chip scanned and it was reading fine.

I explained to him that the chip was not the problem, it did read fine, the problem is there was no owner information on record for the chip so it was pretty much useless.

I get the feeling he thought simply having the dog chipped was all that he needed to do.
