Chase and Anvik..3 pics

[Glacier]

Aren't they "supposed" to wear a Rabies Tag - or do you not hang them for
fear of loosing them?

Their rabies tags are all lost. There is probably a huge collection of them somewhere in the yard, along with a pretty good number of little silver bone i.d. tags and microchip tags too! I only worry about the id tags. Always have more of those on hand.

Chase is probably due for a rabies shot soon and Anvik had his a few months ago, before he got dumped at the shelter. I only do rabies every three years. I just get the vet to come out here and do everyone at once, but he hasn't sent me the little notice yet.

I had that trouble years ago ...
and traced it to "inferior quality" hanging rings supplied with their County Licenses.

I used ONE ring for three tags - License, Rabies, and I.D. - so loose one, loose em ALL

The County bought some really CHEAP rings - very light gage and very little overlap.
Real easy to install ... but a little tug and they'd "Un-Wind" in a flash - -
and dump all the tags.

Enough folks must have complained; now the County rings are lil miniature
Bear Traps!
Harder than heck to thread onto a collar and then add the tags ...
but they sure don't come off too often!
They're HEAVY gage wire, and have 150% overlap.

Wonderful photos! I'm really glad Chase has someone to rough-house with! I have the same situation here - Sherman is almost 4, but Star is going to be 10 in January. Star has slowed down a lot but still manages to race around the park, play with everybody, and wrestle Sherman down daily. For some reason, Sherman turns into my shadow if there's more than 2 other dogs at the park. I wish I could get him to play with some of the energetic young males there! Hey - I have an idea...Sherman could come stay with you for a while and get the hang of doggie-group play!

Oh I just LOVE the close ups. That photo of Anvik is definitely one for the wall of fame. He's such a beautiful dog.
