The phrase âa chip on oneâs shoulderâ is reported as originating with the nineteenth century U.S. practice of spoiling for a fight by carrying a chip of wood on oneâs shoulder, daring others to knock it off. This suggested derivation has more than the whiff of folk-etymology about it.
In dogs and cats, chips are usually inserted below the skin at the back of the neck between the shoulder blades on the dorsal midline. According to one reference, continental European pets get the implant in the left side of the neck. The chip can often be felt under the skin.
