As a result, THLN advises municipalities NOT to remove any of their local ordinances as a result of HB 2127, especially those related to local animal ordinances!

You know how you've been meaning to replace your dog's lost ID tags? Drat! And now your neighborhood sounds like a war zone and your dog is going nuts. Or maybe it's your neighbor who forgot, and you're staring out the window wondering how long before his dog freaks out and jets over the fence and into the night in a blind panic...

Don't let that happen. Do This: Open your junk drawer, dig out a sharpie and write phone numbers on your dog's collar and offer to do your neighbors' dogs' collars.

Then, before the BOOMS get bad, bring your dogs inside, close the drapes, turn up your television to muffle the sound, laugh, play silly games with your dog to distract him, bake something that smells irresistible, give'em stuffed kongs to soothe their brains.

This too shall pass!

Thanks Bad Rap & Lost Dogs of America for this great tip.
