Tango is so pretty! Am I seeing things or is she tatooed in her ear?

No, you're not seeing things . When she got spayed, my vet tattooed her ear. It's standard procedure at his clinic, but of course he asks the owner first. It's just for ID, and I prefer them over microchips (esp. since Tango's had two and neither of them are readable).

Thanks for all of the comments everyone . I'm glad you enjoyed the pictures.

Hey gorgeous Tango! I'm glad to see you!

May I ask how much the tattoo ran? I'm thinking about getting one on Jasper's ear since he's masterful at pulling off his collar and not everyone knows to check for a microchip.

My vet charged us about $30 for her to be tattooed, but I'm pretty sure the dog has to be under anesthetic to have it done or given a tranquilizer of sme sort (incase they wiggle around, because it won't turn out right unless they're perfectly still) and since she was being spayed at the same time it was easy. It would probably cost both of you more I'd think, but I'm not sure. You'd have to ask your vet, or call around.

Ohhhh, I waited, and waited for Tangos' pictures to download this morning, but did not get a chance to reply!!!

so, now I've clicked onto the thread again.

I sure do love looking at your Tango. I didn't notice the Tattoo, so I will have to take a closer look.

Now, I know the answer to the mystery tattoo in one of my grand-dogs ears.!!!! Thank-You for that information.

Oh, and thank-you again, for showing me your beautiful Tango!!!!!

Ohhh, neat ^-^. I was thinking of getting Roxy microchipped, but tattooing looks more efficient. Microchips are only about $10 here if you get them at certain events.
