I keep the hair on Tibbe's neck clipped short so he can wear a collar and 24/7 ID. Even a dog that tangles wouldn't if the hair there is short. I'm terrified of Tibbe getting out and our not being reunited and going to bed that night wondering where in the world my Tibbe might be - if he's out in the cold or the rain or some horrible person might have captured him - someone with huge, big, awful dogs or just a person that hates dogs or someone who wouldn't ever clip his toenails and feed him food that makes him vomit and be sick or not help when he has panic attacks or wants to keep him in a cold garage nights and not beside his mommy on her pillow, warm and loved. Those thoughts make me do everything I can think of to try to keep him as likely as possible to ID him should he get out. So, besides his chip, he wears that ID tag so there is a phone number to call Home Again and they can contact me.
