We moved and I couldn't find anything online with a phone number to call (even the avidid.com website!). Every website wanted me to sign up with them and pay $21 just to change the info. In reality, it only costs $6 and they're charging $15 for their service. I wish they would at least come out and say that. Anyways I called avid and they were super friendly and updated my info for 6 bucks...thanks again hi just thought I’d leave a comment to let you know that your blog post helped me find the phone number for pet trac for my dog’s avid microchip.

Thank you so much for that information! I agree that is a problem. This is definitely an area where standardization would be useful. Hopefully, one type of chip will win out soon.

I am now hearing the AKC is promoting a chip (Trovan) which is on a different frequency 128 KHZ which is not readable by a considerable number of shelters ,vets and pounds On a slightly different note I believe microchips should have a standard and that should be based on the Avid and Home again, the most used.
