I get my dog vaccinated but haven't licensed them since I moved-which is illegal-I'm breaking the law...most owners of small dogs that are indoor pets are too. We're being naughty check with your county or city. If licensing is required the tags are required to be worn, in almost every county, city in the country-we all get a time out for breaking the rules. Some of us might not even do vaccinations as many pure bred enthusiast don't believe in them...I don't want to start that debate on here though other than to mention it.
**However, I have all of my dogs microchipped-and the microchip company keeps the updated information from my vet- so if my dogs are found and scanned if lost they can see that my vet and I are the contacts and that my dogs have current vaccinations.
**The ID tags I have on my dogs are attached to their harnesses-I don't like collars-I wouldn't wear one why should my dogs-anyways the tags are attached to the harness where the leash clips onto and my tags state my dog's name and the word MICROCHIPPED on one side and my name and phone number on the other side.
I was told by someone that there was a story of someone stealing a dog and when they saw on the collar the word microchipped they returned the dog knowing that a microchip cannot be removed and that the real owner would be listed-not sure if its true or would really be a detourant but seems like a good idea to me... |
