where can I buy I.D. tags from the local pets stores around here useless.

Most places who cut keys (name escapes me)  usually do dog tags and engraving etc. I got some lovely ones but s*ds law can't remember the site now. Am sure someone else will have some info for you :)

i know here in australia the rspca sell tags ask you local rspca if they do its where i get my dogs from and they are made of a sturdy metal so they cant be ripped of or chewed up

The Kennel Club Website sell them. Have a look http://www.the-kennel-club.org.uk/ If you look under on-line shop, then dog tags, you will find some. Hope that helps. :-)

sorry  I meant puppy I.D. tags

I know pets at home have a machine for doing your own.I think they cost about £4,but you get them done there and then. :)

Pets at home do Tags (engraved) in a machine or you can send away to give you a wider choice of designs.  They also sell cheep plastic one of little barrel type ones aswell. 

They sell them on ebay with various designs - any colour shape etc, engraved and most of the time free p+p for around £2.50! Thats where i got my 2's from!

And i got them the next day too so not a long wait and there lovely - my 2 have pink stars

I may be wrong, but I think the poster may mean identifying pups when they are born.  My vet came yesterday for Kira's post-whelp check, and she recommended a little mark with nail varnish - so I have marks on a tail, a head, a front left foot, a front right foot, a back left foot, a back right foot, and one without a mark!!  Seems to be working fine :-)  I had put different colour threads round their back feet, but they kept coming off, so I was glad the vet recommended something else!
