While I was walking at Cosmeston this week, a dog was found wandering without the owners in sight. This dog thankfully was wearing a tag with the dogs name and home phone number. Now, I would like to inform you that it is a legal requirement for a dog to wear a name tag with the following information:-
Your Name. Don't put your dogs name, it is useful for a dog napper to know what your dog answers to.
Your Telephone Number. I always put both home and mobile numbers, if your dog goes missing on a walk you cant be at home to receive the call. If your dog escapes from the garden you can then take your mobile and go looking for them.
Your Address. Now if you have a little dog the tag may not be large enough for all this info, I would suggest the phone numbers are more important. Perhaps your post code?
I would also suggest you have on your tag that your dog is neutered. Thieves take dogs to breed them, a neutered dog is not necessarily worth taking.
