Dog collars aren't just pretty or convenient for walking your dog - it's also about the safety of your pet friend.
If your dog runs away or gets lost, the info on its collar can help someone get your pet back home.
Here are a few things that you should always write on your dog's collar.
Name
Write your dog's name on the collar. This helps people call your dog by name if they find them.
Phone Number
Put your phone number on the collar so that someone who finds your dog can call you to let you know they're safe.
Address
You can also include your address, but some people prefer not to for privacy reasons.
If you're concerned about privacy, just having a phone number is usually enough.
Medical Info
If your dog has any medical conditions or needs medication, you can add a note about it on the collar. This can be very important for their safety.
Reward Offer
Some people mention a reward for returning their lost dog. This can encourage people to help and contact you sooner.
Conclusion
In other words, your pet's collar should contain all important information about it, just in case someone finds your dog one day.
Don't skip that step - it helps you keep your dog safe.
