Here are some for you to look at.

I guess the dogs where collars? I embroidered on ribbon then I sew it to the colour. Not sure if that would work but an idea.

I know this isn't embroidery, but one of our local rescue groups uses the wrist bands (narrow ones) like they put on in the hospital to use as collars for each animal. The information is inside the plastic covering, therefore not subject to rain, etc. and they are permanently clipped on, no buckles to undo or break. Of course they make sure the collars aren't too tight or anything like that. They might have gotten some donated by one of our local hospitals, but I might be dreaming that part. It might be tough to embroider all the information like name, shelter, contact number, etc onto cloth and then somehow get it permanently adhered to a collar so it wouldn't come loose or get chewed off by some of these pups. Just a thought, but your embroidery time might be better spent on bookmarks, t-shirts, bandanas, etc. for fundraising for the rescue group. Then you could use some of your other time to contact shelters and see how they solve the problem, and where they can get ID's cheap or free. As I said, just a thought. Thanks so much for any minute you give to these poor orphaned innocent ones, may God bless you greatly for your time and caring for them. Hugs, Marji

A little like baydreamer, I've embroidered on webbing and made collars and have also created velcro/hook & loop wraps for existing collars with the organisation details embroidered on first. Well done for helping the animals -and the humans who also help them :)

At the moment Embroidery Garden have a new set called dog tags. I thought of you straight away. I hope these designs can help for the cause.

Sorry should have included the link
embroiderygarden.com

& they are actually called pet tags...sorry.

the USA Brother website had a dog tag freebie last month. You can download the pattern and project. Just change the design from pes to whatever your machine uses.

HI glad to hear you purchased the pet tags that I mentioned below & I hope they work out well for your needs. Also thanks to mommajo for putting the actual link in for me..ggg
