ID TAG and MICROCHIP  

Even if your dog is micro-chipped, the old school method of having an ID tag with current phone number on your pet at all times will help your best friend get back home quickly, if lost.  We'll stand on our soap box and preach all day long about the power of the microchip and ID tag and how it helps the entire pet community.  All of us want your pet home safe and sound if lost.  Please keep up-to-date ID on your pets at all times! 

A note about invisible fences:  Please consider the dangers before making your purchase.
