DOG TAGS MUST BE CURRENT AND VISIBLE

So often, when a nervous, stray dog is finally coaxed close enough to grab their collar, in that very brief moment I will try to read the dog tag only to find it dirty, worn and illegible. To further complicate matters, the type is so tiny I cannot read it without eyeglasses, and who has them handy when working in the garden? So I would urge those of you who have dogs to be sure their tags are legible and current . . . and preferably big. If, by some luck I can read a dog tag, so often there is no phone number or the number is disconnected or has no answering machine. Please be sure your pet's tag is clean, legible and has a current phone number so those of us who try to help . . . CAN.
