Fashion is the least of it for me. I've read too many stories on here about furbutts that have darted out doors, somebody left thee gate open, & other means of escape whether dog is trained/untrained... in town or country. The ones who get returned home the quickest to the owners are the ones with dog tags & phone numbers regardless of what daily rituals are of out only on leash or whatever. Sometimes these independent little stink pots cannot be trusted trained or not. I know Roxy will stay with me outside.... as long as there is not a squirrel, or other little critter. Then all bets are off. Roxy is never without her collar & tags except for her bath. Replaced soon after. Yes there is the risk of it getting caught on something. Life is full of risk. She is so friendly i think the risk of never seeing her again is very likely if people do not know where her home is. That's a risk I absolutely 'cannot' take. |
