What tags do your dogs wear?

If a dog is found, they can be identified by the license number, but that means it has to be during office hours. I prefer that they wear ID tags for that reason.

My dogs wear their ID tags, their license, the rabies tag, and their microchip tag.

 Tootsie wears an i.d. tag in the house and when we go out she wears her license and rabies. She is also micrchipped.

 Kenya:

• AKC CGC tag, on the back it has her name, DOB, AKC #, microchip #, and my name and phone #
• county license/rabies
• microchip tag 

Coke:

• ID tag with his name, my name, address, and phone #
• county license/rabies
• rabies tag from the vet

Honor and Nike both wear ID, rabies, and microchip tags.  Nike has an additional tag from his rescue. 

Both of mine only wear a collar with a Boomerang tag with all my contact info and the fact that they are chipped.  I used to have a dog who could chew anything that dangled off and I love that the Boomerangs won't fall off or get lost or tangled on anything.  With the way Indie chews on Woobie's neck and collar, he could easily yank almost any tag off and possibly swallow or choke on it. 

 Kirby goes nakey around the house.  When we go out he has an ID and a rabies tag on his harness.  He is also microchipped.

o ok. so putting the 3 tags on his collar isn't excessive.

No, I don't think anything is excessive if it helps get your dog back!

 Nothing. They walk around nekkid, and their various harnesses and collars don't have tags on them. Our county doesn't require licensing, and the rabies tag doesn't count, here. You have to have the certificate.

I'm the evil pet owner who doesn't keep id tags on her dogs. Emma will not come to anyone (and if someone "catches" her, I feel bad for them...), and Ena is a hairless monkey dog. I don't worry too much about them getting lost.

 Maggie wears a number of tags:

general id

rabies

city license

Delta Society Pet Partners id

Ziva used to wear her id, rabies, microchip, and license tags, but now wears just a collar with our phone number embroidered on it while I try to see if she's allergic to the metal on the tags (hairloss started and seemed to dissapate when I left the collar/tags off).  It's also her SAR collar because I don't have to worry about losing tags or them getting caught on anything.

HA! Same here. Cherokee's always naked around the house, so if she happened to slip out one day, a harness in the house with tags on it wouldn't do much good. I think I'm supposed to have a license tag on her all the time, but...I'm a rebel, what can I say.

She does have a collar with a tag that just has my cell phone number on it... I'm planning on keeping that on her all the time next time we go camping, but I don't think it'll do much good if she runs off in the middle of the night (but I seriously think the odds of that are like one in a million..for all her tough barking, she's just a scared little puppy lol), because of the whole people catching her problem.

I would never put her name on a tag, because if she's just met someone, even if she's fine with them, if they say her name..it's so over.

This is exactly what Max wears too.  The ID tag has his name and my name, address and phone no.  He managed to get out twice about a year ago while one section of the fence was being replaced and took himself to the park at the end of the street.  The first time someone called me from their cell (a total stranger) and the second time, also a stranger, just walked him back to the house. Both times he had been right inside just about 10 minutes before.  Fortunately he'll go to anyone, so it wasn't difficult rescuing him but having that ID tag meant he didn't wind up at the shelter on a weekend.

Same here.My son's Aussie wears 3 tags....County licence,rabies, and a tag that simply says REWARD and my cell #.I also have found putting one of those rubberized things around the tag in the middle eliminates the jingle noise that keeps me up in the night.Jewel only wears her colar and tags if we go somewere which is rare.

 Our dogs and cat only have one tag each.  It has our contact details on, in case they should get loose.  On the back it has "CHIPPED & NEUTRD".
