All dogs here are chip and have I all the necessary papers for everything else.
In some places you are required to have collars/halters on certain animals at all times. Where I am there is a "leash law" that applies to dogs, cats, and horses (should a horse get loose from a pasture without a halter the farm owner is responsible for all damage... If they are wearing one it is a different story). They must have a collar/halter on whenever they are out of the house. Should a dog or cat be out without a collar and be picked up by the town there can be a pretty big fine.
