Hi All
Having a total nightmare at the moment trying to trace a microchip. A friend of a friend bought the horse from a dealer ( who will remain nameless) with the promise that the passport would follow in the post - sound familiar???... Anyway the passport never arrived and the owner who is not the most clued up horsey person got her vet to insert a microchip and make a new passport for said horse.
After months of various dramas the horse has passed hands once again and my friend now has him. The vet was called out to give him a once over and while scanning him discovered that he now has 2 microchips!!!!ahhhhhh!!! The dealer who originally sold the horse claimed he was imported and was a belgian or dutch warmblood but looks more like a cob X to me!!
Anyways sorry for the long background story but i am now trying to trace the horse's breeding from the other microchip but have been trawling the internet all day and seem to have hit a brick wall!!cannot trace it through any database! The microchip starts with 981 and have read on many sites that this may lead to the country in which it was inserted in but not too sure about this!!
Any help would be much appreciated!!
Thanks!!
