If you care about
your pet, place an identification tag on its collar. The information you provide will be used
by whoever finds your pet to contact you of its whereabouts.
If you dislike
tags on your pet due to the noise, buy a light-colored nylon collar and using an indelible pen or laundry marker,
write your phone number on the collar. This will improve the chances that your pet will be returned to you.
Also, check your pets collar
at least once a month to make certain it fits properly. You should be able to slip your fingers under the collar. Do not allow
the collar to remain on the animal if it is too tight as it can become embedded in the flesh. As the animal grows,
the collar does not stretch!
NEVER, wrap a chain or
tie-out cable around your pets neck. As the animal moves around, the chain/cable will tighten and could possibly
strangle your pet.
