As the season here gets started, please take the time to get your pet microchipped. It doesn't cost much, any vet can do it, and it is painless to the animal. If you do this, and your pet becomes lost, the humane shelter or any vet can check get you reunited with your pet. They insert a chip the size of a piece of rice in their back. You get a number and you go to a website and put in your data. So when your pets chip gets read, it shows contact information. And if your dog slips his collar and loses his tags, this is another way to identify him if he is found.
You may not think this is important, but if someone in your area starts setting off fireworks, or we get a severe thunder and lightening storm, a lot of dogs will bolt in fear; or your dog may wander off. Or if someone has stolen your dog, it increases the chances that you will get him back. It works for indoor/outdoor cats too.
