Dog tags....

[prncssleah]

I need to get Tank and Buckeye tags too. They have been so bad lately about running off as soon as their feet hit the ground. Do you all keep their tags on them all the time on a collar or what?

I keep the tags on my two all the time, except when they are in their cages.

Kirby's tags are attached to his harness and he wears his harness all the time except for bathing and brushing.

It is unlikely for someone who finds your dog and decides to keep it, that will keep a dog in which needs vet care, their kids being attached to a sick dog, or even keeping it as a watchdog, with some sort of disease.
Regardless of how cute, how rare the breed, or how tough the dog, people rarely steal or hold on to sick dogs. Think twice! Your dog may:

- Escape through the front door or your gate
- Jump the fence
- Someone else might forget to close the front door shut
- Your kids weren’t able to restrain your dog
- Someone might try to steal your dog
- Had an old fence and your dog managed to finally get out
- Hurricane, tornado or just a stormy day knocked your fence down

You don’t want people to know where you live and your house isn’t watched by your dog. You don’t want people to know your dog’s name or your last name? Why? And you certainly don’t want to put, Reward. Some don’t care about rewards and will return dogs for the goodness of their hearts.

Don’t forget the area code. Some dogs walk and walk and end up in different cities. Plus, you might take your dog with you to a different city and want it to be found and returned to mommy and daddy.

I came up with this idea years ago and it's funny, even if the officers from the animal shelters find your dog, they bring it straight to your home. Shhhhhhhhhh don’t say, I told you this. They don’t want to take the chance to take a sick dog to their shelters, do they? Don’t put sick dog folks. That’s not enough. CANCER works best.
