What Matese said! I was going to say that actually.
I would get the dog microchipped in case it looses it's tag or if someone takes it off. Vets typically check for a microchip when you bring in a dog. A shelter will for sure. I would keep a collar on it with an ID tag. If I am crating my Yorkie for several hours (about 1-3 times a month I work for 4 hours at a time) then I take the collar off him just to be safe. Since he is in his crate he won't be sneaking out the front door. When I get home I put the collar back on and then harness him up and take him out to potty (the harness also has an ID tag on it though). I found a place on Amazon that does ID tags for less than $3 each so I have 4 for Teek. I have 2 for my husband's dog as well.
