I think the idea of having a tag is so that if anyone finds your dog they can see a number and call, you'd be surprised how many people find a dog adn don't call a pound to have the dog scanned for a microchip or to turn in the dog- I think people think they are saving a found dog from being taken to the pound.
**So even though my dogs are chipped they have tags with their named the word MICROCHIPPED (I heard this prevents theft of pets too) and my name and phone number so anyone can see it and call immediately.
** My Princess would try and eat the tags off the other dog's harnesses it took training to get them to leave them alone-it was a battle but seemed well worth the effort for me.
** As I said I'm breaking the law (I'm a very naughty girl for this I actually feel bad now) because despite having my dogs all current on all their vaccinations I don't have them licenses in my current city. I inquired and was sent the paperwork and just never followed through-if something should happen before I get them licensed or if I do and they are not wearing the extra tag (who put more than one tag on their dog that's rude) I'll be fined-maybe I can have another set of custom made tag made that include all information so they are wearing only one tag...
