We haven't checked for microchips yet. Just called the vet to try and track by 
the tag, and put up signs. We'll hit our vet in the AM if we don't get any 
calls. Funny I didn't even think of checking for a chip - our rescue shelter 
beagle has a chip. Hmmmm, wonder if I could have the kids micro-chipped?
