Make sure your dog is wearing identification

Summer is here and I hope everyone is enjoying the nice weather outside with their dogs. Besides remembering to keep your best friend watered and cool while enjoying the sunshine make sure your dog has some form of identification like a tag or a collar with his or her name and your phone number on it in case your dog gets lost. This is a good idea even if your dog has a microchip because it will be obvious to anyone who finds your dog. Some people may not think about taking a lost dog to a shelter or veterinarian to be checked for a microchip but everyone knows if there is a name and number on the dog that it is a beloved family member trying to find home.
