A microchip saved Vanessa Williams’ pooch

An interesting post-script to the dramatic disappearance of Enzo, Vanessa Williams’ pet Yorkie: It turns out that she was ultimately reunited with the dog thanks to a microchip under the its skin. As Williams explained:
“He was taken from my property on Memorial Day morning. At your vet you can get a microchip implanted (in your pet) called Home Again, which I did. It doesn’t hurt the dog at all. Then you just log on, and you enroll for this program, and you can find the dog. So if he’s brought into a shelter or another vet, they can scan him and that’s how they called. I got the call last Wednesday, and they said, ‘We have your dog.’”
Apparently the person who turned Enzo in lived in Connecticut, so the dog had presumably traveled pretty far from the Williams home in Chappaqua. The lesson to be learned here: Tracking implants, as Orwellian as they sound, should be implanted in all celebrities or celebrity pets prone to getting lost (it would sure help automate our star map).
And apparently Richard Gere isn’t the only local seduced by the siren song of the Constitution State.
