I'll tote her around in a soft carrier with her head out, and keep her as safe as humanly possible, but...we all worry right?
what are your thoughts? she's likely 1+ lbs right now...gonna be 3-4, breeder says closer to 3, i can't feel comfortable personally, but do not knock anybody that does, about putting a collar on her at that size. the harness seems safer.
aslo about microchipping...too bad they don't have GPS chipping, that i could go for, but the microchipping, do alot of you guys and gals do that? do people KNOW to go and check for the chip IRL? how do they do that anyhow? i'm clueless on this subject. does it hurt them to be put in? approximate costs? do u feel it's worth it?
aside from that and info on the harness and id tag, would be terrific. i wouldn't feel good w/o any id on her. at home, no worries, but ukwim.
maybe have the info printed on a dress, or embroidered, lol, if they do that.
thoughts? michelle |
