Lots of people don’t know there are microchips or wait to take them to vet to get scanned and with a collar and tag the number is right there.
I had one pup who jumped up and her collar caught on a kitchen drawer handle..,it was years ago but I think it was the loop of a tag that snagged it. The other one was lying on a rug one day and couldn't get up because the tag holder had caught on a loop of the rug...if I wasn't there he could have injured himself trying to get loose.
I am terrified of collars in the house now.
I have had dogs chew other dogs collars off of them and have heard of dogs getting caught up in other dogs' collars. If you can put two fingers under a collar, a dog can fit a lower jaw in.
