I had a collar with a bell on my puppy when I first got her. One day I noticed the bell was gone. I couldn't find it anywhere. I even looked all over the yard. I called the vet and Calleigh had to go in for an x-ray. That was the end of the bell for me...
I have a collar on Calleigh at all times. She has her ID and Microchip info on it. I always use a
"harness" when walking her. I didn't know about collapsing trachea when I first got her. I'm so glad I found out about it.
