I like the jingle of the tags to let me know where she is. They say lots of lost dogs never find there home because they are not wearing a collar with a tag. When Callie was a puppy and would dart out of the door and we had to chase her through the neighborhood that what would happen if she got out of my sight and I lost her in the neighborhood and she had no collar or tags. I want to make it very easily to return my dog to me if she got out. I have also heard that like in states where they have tornados that they have a lot of lost dogs and dogs go missing when a tornado comes through during the day when damage happens to the house and the dog gets out. |
I have a back yard, really no need to walk my boy but I do, for this reason only. For him to recognize the area smells,his driveway and the roads we walk. I walk him every morning in the summer, and winter, weather permitting in the afternoons. Just so he is familiar with his area. In case he should get loose he will find his way home, but he always has his tags on.
