Buying a pet ID tag for your Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie is like purchasing insurance – you do it with the devout wish that you’ll never use it. The “possible cost” of not having a pet ID tag is more costly than the “actual cost” of buying the pet tag itself.
The kind of pet ID tag that you buy is important, so take 5 minutes or so to consider it. Impulsively picking a collar tag just because it’s cheap or trendy usually ends up being a regret, long-term.
Consider the following before purchasing any pet identification tag for your Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie:
1.What is the amount of risk to your Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie?
Missing Anglo-Francais De Petite Veneries are certainly common – we’ve all seen “Lost Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie!” signs tacked around the city, or deceased Anglo-Francais De Petite Veneries lying on the edge of the road. If your Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie is a master at breaking through your fence, or can’t resist chasing a smell, or youthful and energetic, or isn’t well trained, the possibility of a missing Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie is high.
But losing your Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie isn’t the only risk.
Sometimes Anglo-Francais De Petite Veneries are stolen. A pet thief may snatch Fifi or Fido hoping to get a reward for its return, or to use in pit fights (even small or gentle dogs are susceptible – they can be used as “bait”), or for use in religious rituals.
And what is the danger to your Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie if something were to happen to you, the owner?
If you’re a senior citizen with a Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie, particularly if you live by yourself or are in ill health, there’s a high chance that at some point someone else will need to care for your furry friend, maybe with little notice. And anyone can be struck by disaster or tragedy which leaves you incapable of caring for your Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie.
In this instance, will your Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie’s temporary or new caretaker know that Fido hates cats, or needs medicine, or even whether or not Max is potty trained? A pet identification that contains more than your name and phone number would be extremely beneficial.
2.What level of risk are you ok with?
Some Anglo-Francais De Petite Veneries are simply more important to their owners, and the risk of losing that pet calls for a specific, higher priced type of pet ID tag. Risk is proportionate to value.
Realize that there is more than one way to calculate the value of your Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie. It may be monetary (e.g., a purebred Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie) or occupational (e.g., a guide dog).
However for most Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie owners, the relationoship attachment they have to their companion determines its value. For many, Anglo-Francais De Petite Veneries are like family, impossible to replace and dearly loved.
3.Based on your responses to the two previous questions, what do you require of a pet ID tag?
Pet identification tags come in various shapes, sizes and materials and can contain varying amounts of information. Some contain artwork or logos, too. Usually pet ID tags are designed to be attached to a collar.
At the minimum, a pet ID tag should contain the address, phone number and name of the Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie’s owner in a legible, durable format. Plastic tags are light but easily chewed. Stainless steel tags are durable and don’t rust or fade. These traditional types of tags can purchased from any vet or pet store. They’re low cost but the amount of info they hold is limited to the size of the tag.
Luckily, there are many more options of pet identification tags for your Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie these days, such as microchipping, tattooing, digital display tags, pet registry web sites and voice recorded pet identification tags.
One of the most recent entries in the pet ID game is the high-tech USB drive that hangs off your Anglo-Francais De Petite Venerie’s collar (or is attached to their kennel) and which holds 64MB of data (including comprehensive diet and medical information). The tiny USB drive is encased in a sturdy plastic case and can be used in any computer, where it is automatically updated and easy to print sections for sharing with your animal doctor or pet sitter. There also exist bluetooth trackers, but their range is small, because of bluetooth technological limits.
