Now, how much can you "Love your Pet"We had to put down our beloved poodle "Peanut" after 16 years and decided that having a pet was just heart breaking when they are ill. After two years we realized we really missed the love and affection that a dog has to give and started thinking about another dog. My daughter has a shorthaired black and tan dachshund that just tugged at our hearts. We were the baby sitter for her fur baby when he couldn't go with them. She said we really needed to get a dachshund for our own so J.D., her fur baby would have a playmate. Well, after many visits to breeders we found this sweet faced little fellow and my husband chose Alex to be his name. Of course I'm sure it wasn't because his middle name is Alexander. He said it was for Alexander The Great. Let me tell you he has done more for our lives then we ever thought possible. To make if he ever does get out of our site that he is brought back to us, I knew to order a "Love Your Pet" tag. I'm thankful for the reasonal price for the security of always having Alex as safe as possible.
Rambo the CatOne day this cute, fluffy ball of fur found us and did not want to leave us. He was so cute and irresistible and he immediately won over our hearts. This little fellow is very playful but also a little rambunctious, so we named him Rambo. He is a true gift from heaven and our pride and joy.
Sugar Baby: the Runt of the LitterThis is the story of how I got my first dog. Hope you enjoy!

Her mother was a Golden retriever and her father was a Labrador.
She came from a litter of 10 - five boys, five girls. She was the smallest, the runt of the litter. She and her brother and sisters were put in a box, taken to the Food Lion parking lot and left there. She was being tumbled on and squished by her bigger siblings. My grandmother had gone shopping and saw them in the box. She went to have a look at them, and picked the female runt out for me, and the largest female for herself. My grandmother took them to her house and named the runt Sugar Baby and the large pup Honey Love. She took care of them and got their shots and gave me Sugar. Sugar lived with me for 3 years, until she was so big, I did not have anymore room in my house. She went back to live at my grandmother's. I help with buying Sugar's food and treats. Over the years, my grandmother has saved many other dogs from death until she could not take care of all of them PLUS Honey and Sugar. She found a home for 3 of the 4 dogs she saved. She couldn't let the walker hound she saved go, so she chose to find Honey a home. She did not want to, but Honey was getting very aggressive to Sugar and the other dogs. Honey found a home with some friends that brought her every year to see us, until my grandmother told them to cut back on Honey's food because she was 6+ pounds over-weight. They got mad, and we never saw Honey Love again. Sugar Baby was now 7 years old. I decided to try to start bringing Sugar back to my house. I kept her outside during the day and she came in at night. I did this for 1 year, until it became too much to handle during the summer months when I needed to go outside every hour to fill up her water bucket with fresh water. She was driven back to my grandmother's. Sugar was also kept out ide there, but she was in the shade with fans blowing on her and a cold concrete kennel to lay on, plus 5 water buckets, so she was in a sort of tropical paradise.
My grandmother and I always went to Myrtle beach, SC every year. We decided to take Sugar. But 3 weeks before we were to leave, Sugar was attacked by a dog. The dog put 4 1-inch holes in Sugar's rear end. Sugar had to have surgery at the vet to close the holes and had a drain put in, but it only made things worse. We had to keep a cone on her to keep her from pulling out the drain. We had to take it of to let her eat and drink water until it became so much trouble that we just left off full time and just kept a close eye on Sugar. We made the beach trip and Sugar had fun. She got very spoiled and loved on by everyone who saw her. They said 'oh,what a pitiful girl" or "you poor thing".
Once Sugar was healed, my family put our house up for sale. It was sold while we were in TN on vacation, and when we got back we had to live in our camper for three months until we found a house. We did and got moved in and settled in November 2009. Sugar was 9 years old now. In January 2010, I decided to take her to our new home. It was a lot larger and she enjoyed it. Every thing went well until April 2010. We left Sugar outside while we ate lunch inside.When we went back out after lunch, Sugar's shoulder was swollen to the size of a small watermelon. She was bleeding too. I looked at her shoulder and pushed her hair back and the were two holes from were a snake's fangs had gone through. My dear darling doggie had been bitten by a snake! I got some scissors and a phone and called my grandmother. As I was cutting the hair from around the wound, my grandmother was rushing to my house to drive Sugar and me to the vet.We got there and the vet gave Sugar an anti-venom shot and gave us some antibiotics for Sugar and said if any thing went wrong to bring Sugar back in and they would keep her for a few days.
Thankfully, Sugar healed without complications and she's now a happy 9 1/2 years old dog.
My girl will soon be 10, on August 17 2010.

Sugar has gone from a roaming trouble-maker to a sophisticated lady in too short a time. It seems like it was just yesterday when I was chasing that girl around my neighborhood, and now she can't even get up without her bones popping. I will treasure the rest of her days with me, and I will always love my Sweet Sugar Baby.
thanksThank you for the id tags. They look great on my two cats :D
The day the goat and dogs went to town.Last Sunday we had a horrible wind storm and I had to leave and run an errand. My golden retriever, border collie mix and 1 show goat were all in my yard but were not anywhere to be found when I returned. I began to call neighbors and different ones the next morning when they had not shown up. By 6:30 that next evening I received a call that the Golden Retriever and the Goat had been found. They had traveled 7 miles crossed the interstate and found on old Highway 66. The retriever was not going to be loaded without his goat buddy. They are safely home but have not yet found the border collie mix. He was seen in the vicinity but so scared he was unable to be caught. I just keep praying he will come home. I have ordered these tags hoping this nitemare never happens again. My retriever has tried so hard to talk to me about what happened. Thanks for having this product available.
Tiffany and lamaze classesMy cat Tiffany and I were really close. She has passed on now, but she was my best friend when I was young. We liked rough housing - my hands would be all scratched up, lol. Well there was a time when Tiffany had her first pregnancy, about two weeks prior to her due date she would approach me, she then would grab my hand in her mouth and give me a tug to tell me she wanted me to follow her, so I did. She ended up leading me up the stairs and into my room. Then she would jump up on my bed to say sit here so I listened to her. This kept going on everyday for two whole weeks up until it was time for Tiffany to have her kittens. One evening my family had our friends over and right in the middle of dinner Tiffany came waddling up to me as usual, she grabbed my hand again in her mouth I put my plate down then I followed her up the stairs with my hand still in her mouth we went into my room were she jumped up on the bed once again where she wanted me to sit, but this time after she let go of me she went into her little box that I had prepared for her and to my surprise she started to have her little kitties. She wanted me to be with her during her babies' birth. She ended up having five cute chubby kittens all different colors lol - two chubby orange kittens, one striped grey, one tuxedo black coat with white gloves all that was missing was the top hat lol, and the last one was just like his father all white and spots he was named Bert. They all eventually ended up getting good homes and lived happily ever after.
Traveling TobyI always take my dog on trips with me since he loves to ride in the car. I was visiting friends in a big city who offered to take Toby to the park with them. Not knowing he was too easily distracted to be able to be let off the leash, he chased after a cat and was soon nowhere to be found. Thanks to the two numbers you put on your tags, the person who found him called my cell phone and I was able to pick him up right away. Thank You Love Your Pets!!!!
Triggar and LokiI ordered my dogs tags Aug 7th and they arrived today Aug 12th. My Triggar Boy just turned 5 in april and We just got his Little Brother Loki 2 weeks ago. Triggar has the tendency to run away when he gets out of our house. I've been training Loki not to pay attention to Triggar's bad behavior but I just feel better having the tags so I know my Fur Babies have them Thanks So Much

Where would they be without their ID tags!Panda, Miller & Addie aren't allowed to leave the house without their ID tags on.

Just the other day Panda was sniffing around the neighborhood and a Mrs. Johann, who lives two streets away picked Panda up. She thought to herself, 'this must be the Reggio's dog'. Sure enough Panda had slipped away within the matter of minutes. Thanks to her ID tag she was returned home safely!
Panda is our black & white puppy. She is also the oldest at 13 years of age. She is the angel of the bunch!!

Miller.... he is something else!! He is the 'Man of the House" and the "King of the Neighborhood" He likes to explore the whole neighborhood when he is outside. All I gotta do is clap my hands and he comes running home. But he still never leaves home without his ID tag!
Miller is our 'Katrina Dog'. He loves boat rides, going to the camp & playing with his neighborhood friends. He looks just like a Mini Golden Retriever. He is 3 years old & smooth as can be!!

Addie... She is just a big, big girl! She is our black lab who just made 2 years old on Oct 28th. Super smart & super sweet. She loves swimming in the bayou everyday and going 4-wheeler riding. She pretty fast and keeps up with the bike. She also likes to wonder the neighborhood. Although I don't think she will ever leave my side, she doesn't leave home without her ID tag!!

Remember these ID tags can save your pets life, they can also save you from extreme heartache if your pet ever gets lost. Please buy a tag today and keep your pet safe!
K.C. the Cavalier RubyThis is K.C. my friend's Cavalier King Charles spaniel Ruby who sadly went to Rainbow Bridge in October 2007. I enjoyed going for walks with him, he was a lovable, huggable dog, and I miss him so much.
