Many animal health insurance agencies just want you to get your pet microchipped because it's an expensive procedure, and this can be verified if they suggest to you take your pet to a specific place to get the microchip that they are probably associated with and get funding from. However, microchipping your pet can save it from being euthanized or readopted, since shelters are required by law now to check to see if the dog or cat has a microchip. It is then that they can contact you at whatever the number or email address is that you used to register the microchip. This guarantees you keep your dog for a long time, and stay on their insurance for a long time. So either way, it's a hook, but at least this hook serves a use- especially if you live out in the country where your dog frequents long walks by himself/herself.
