Till now, Petal has been wearing a blue collar with my cell phone number written on it in Sharpie marker. It is from the stash of collars that I have on hand to use whenever we volunteer to help transport dogs. It did the job, but blue isn't really Petal's color.
Now, Petal has her own collar ... bought especially for her, in a lovely shade of rose pink. See her new tag?
The noise of jingling tags on collars makes me nuts, but I am mindful of the importance of keeping ID on my dogs in addition to their microchips, so we use flat tags from Boomerang Tags. For $11.95, they provide up to five lines of information, super fast service, total peace of mind, and no jingling! (even Winnie had a Boomerang Tag on her tiny kitten-sized collar.) I received no compensation for this ... I'm just a very satisfied customer.
Today is Day 18 with Petal. Dorothy is finally becoming more comfortable with Petal and isn't spending her days hiding upstairs anymore.
Our routine is well on its way to being normal again. I am very happy!
