Identifying your Dog
If your dog is lost, how does some one return him to you?
If your dog is wearing a collar with a tag, the person who finds it can call you. If your dog is microchipped, a bylaw officer can scan it and then call to notify that your dog has been found. Otherwise your dog might sit in a kennel at the dog impound, waiting for you, and what if you don't know it is there? Your dog MIGHT get lucky and get rehomed, or unfortunately some over filled shelters put many stray dogs down. |
