A lost pet is considered to be the worst nightmare for a pet owner. If your pet dog happens to chase some rabbit, or decides to investigate an odor, he may have trouble finding his way back home. Your pet could escape by inadvertently slipping off his leash, dig a hole under your yard’s fence, or just simply running off when you open your vehicle door in one of your travel rest stops.
Being a pet owner means being responsible enough to be prepared and ensure that your pet always has proper identification with him so that the odds of getting him back are much higher. Also, be proactive enough to prevent escapes in the first place. If your dog is playing in your yard, try keeping a closer watch than usual. This is highly recommended if your yard has no fence, so never leave your dog unattended at any point in time.
