Pet Stories and Photos

I was volunteering at our county fair when I saw a beautiful dog roaming the fairgrounds. Several people tried to get close to her, she was timid. It took me 20 min. to gain her trust as I slowly followed her around to ensure she didn't leave the gated area, who knows what might have happened to her. I got my hands on her with soft words, kneeling down. I got her dog license number and took her to the Sharif's trailer. They ran her 'plate' and the owner was found. She was lost from his camper as he was there showing his cattle. This made me realize the importance of having tags on my own dog, as he loves to run free. I ordered them today!

My 2 Shih-Tzus, Lily and Amber had just returned from the groomer and were showing off new do's, neckerchiefs and Love Your Pet ID tags....

I had two Japanese Chins, a father & son. The dad kept fighting his son and my sister-in-law saw the son, Walker Texas Ranger who was 2 years old and fell in love with him. Chins are beautiful, loving dogs. Kinda rare, with pushed in faces. I reluctantly let her have him. I made her promise me if she couldn’t keep him or didn’t want to keep him for any reason to bring him back to me anytime. I loved him and only let him go to have a better life.

I keep my babies till their time comes, but his dad was too old to rehome and it wasn’t fair with the fighting. Most male Chins are not fighters. They are very docile.

Four years went by and they were happy and he was happy. Thjen my ex sister-in-law got divorced from my ex brother-in-law and still wanted to keep him. One day I got a call and the lady said “Did you lose a white and black Pekinese female?” I said “I’ve never owned one” but then it dawned on me and I said, “Are you sure it’s not a male Japanese Chin?” She checked the gender and it was male. I said “Yes! It is mine!” She said she was in Jacksboro Texas and I live in Watauga. That’s a very long ways away. I made arrangements to pick him up.

I never one time heard from my ex sister-in-law. I was very upset. He was found on a busy highway like 30 to 40 miles away. I’m not sure what happened. I didn’t know if she gave him away or what?? He still had his tags on from when she got him from me 4 years ago. The lady that found him was a rescuer, thankfully. I couldn’t believe they never changed his tags.




They were the same ones with my name, address # & same rabies tag vet tag. I guess she didn’t take care of him. He also was micro chipped in my name but that’s only good if scanned. If he'd not had the tags on I may not of ever got him back home with me. By that time his dad had passed away. I had him till he passed from congestive heart failure at about 10 yrs old. Please consider this if you do have to rehome a pet that you’d take back if it didn’t work.

I don’t have a pic to show right now. It was a miracle I got him back & it was a miracle he survived. He had medical issues: asthma, collapsing trachea, seizure disorder, brachia cephalic. He had a broken pelvis. A bike fell over on him early on so it was a true miracle he survived out loose on a busy highway for how ever long. And again I’ve never- not once- heard from my ex sister-in-law.

I had him about 4 yrs after I got him back. He passed away in 2007. Rest in peace, Walker. You had an adventurous life.

After 2 of our older dogs passed away, our Rottweiler became very sad. I always wanted a Yorkie and found one at a puppy rescue. There's a 174 pound difference between the two but they are best friends! Everyone loves walking by our yard and seeing the little one "keeping guard" while standing on the big one's back.

I adopted Izumi, Izzi for short, from the SPCA a week ago, and her tags just came in the mail. She is two months old.

My puppy, Duke, got lost one morning and I looked for him for twelve hours. He had wandered almost a mile away. Thank goodness he was wearing his little name tag from Love Your Pets. They called the number on the tag and he was safely returned!!!

My Jack Russell/Rat Terrier "TAZ" ran away yesterday. He has only done this once before in 5 years and then only went as far as a neighbors, so it would have been easy to justify not having him tagged. Within a half an hour someone who lives quite away from us called. Without his tags from you he would have only been recovered if someone bothered to have him "microchip checked". Thanks for the tags. They saved our dog.

I adopted a Yorkie from the local animal shelter and named him Benji. Shortly after he became sick and had to have emergency bladder surgery for his stones. Benji also must take half a pill twice a day for the rest of his life and had a e-collar on his neck so he would not lick his incision. When he got home he was outside on his lead in the front lawn to use the restroom. I was at work and got a text from someone saying I found your dog. I called my boyfriend in a panic and he told me he got off his leash. Luckily a family had found him and called the number on his I.D. He could have very well died had he gotten lost with the e-collar on his neck that made it hard for him to eat or drink, and without his medicine. We also have three cats, Captain, Annabelle, Sadie that go outside and it gives me peace of mind to know that if they ever were lost or hurt we could be contacted. Thanks Love Your Pets for saving my babies life.
