Message from the Bethel Animal Control Officer
Proper identification helps ensure that your dog can make its way home in the case of theft, loss, or other emergency situations. Using more than one method of identification can increase your dog's chances of being returned.
Tag - Tags are one of the easiest and cheapest methods of identification. When the dog is found, the owner can be contacted directly and quickly, often avoiding a trip to the shelter. Be sure to include your name, address, and phone number on the tag. By adding your cell phone number as well, you can even be reached if you are out of the house when the dog is found. If you travel or move, be sure to update the information or use temporary tags.
The downside? Tags can come off or be removed by someone with ill intentions. That is why it is important to consider alternate forms of doggy ID.
Where to buy tags: local pet store or veterinarian. Also, when you receive your dog license from the State of New York you receive a unique I.D. # that is registered with the State and can be looked up by any Animal Control Officer to find the registered owner.
Tattoo - Because the needle does not reach the nerve endings of the dog's skin, the tattooing procedure is not painful and takes only two to three minutes. On average, the procedure runs about $10, with discounts for multiple pets. Select a unique number and register your contact information with a tattoo registry, such as National Dog Registry. It is not advisable to tattoo your phone number or address, because that could change. With a registry, you can easily update this information. An added benefit: it is against the law for research facilities to use a tattooed animal in experimentation. This helps to protect your dog from possible theft for use in a lab.
The downside? It is possible for someone to alter or remove a tattoo. To prevent this, do not place the tattoo on the lip or ear, because ears can be cut off and lips can be clipped. Instead, tattoos are frequently applied to the inner leg or stomach.
Where to get a tattoo: veterinarian or through a dog club or other organization
Microchip - Microchips are inserted under the skin between the shoulder blades with a large needle and can then be read with the proper scanner. The procedure is safe and relatively inexpensive, running between $20 and $60. Microchips must be registered with your current contact information, and this registration should be updated if you move. Unlike tattoos, it is hard to remove or alter a microchip.
The downside? To be detected, a compatible scanner must be used. Before implanting a chip, contact your local shelter or animal control agency to ensure they can read the type of chip you will implant. If you have already implanted an incompatible chip, contact the chip manufacturer and ask them to provide a scanner to your local shelters and animal control agency.
Where to get a microchip: veterinarian or animal shelter.
GPS Collar - These collars can provide you with peace of mind, especially if you are working with an anxious or fearful dog that often goes into flight mode. The device allows you to find out where your dog is at any given moment. If your dog runs away, you don't need to wonder where he went; you can just pop onto the computer! Some devices provide instant notification when your dog goes outside the area you specify. The Global Pet Finder collar even lets you know when conditions outside become too hot or cold.
The downside? Like tags, GPS collars can come off or be removed. Consider using the collar in combination with another form of identification to ensure your pet is safe!
Where to get a GPS collar: local pet store
Local Requirements - A license is required in most cities and counties. Your dog should always wear the license tag along with an ID tag. If your dog is picked up by a police or animal control officer, they can contact you directly, skipping a trip to the shelter. If your dog does end up in the shelter, the staff will know how to contact you. Also, many shelters will extend the time they will hold onto your dog, waiting for you to pick him up, as well as provide emergency medical treatment if required.
The downside? None, but since your dog may be end up outside your county or city, it's a good to utilize another method of identification as well.
Where to license your dog: Contact your local animal control agency for information

Tips to Keep Bear Away
According to a national study of the more than 500 people injured by bears between 1960 and 1980 in North America , 90 percent of the cases were the result of bears conditioned to people's food and habituation to human beings. Based on studies at national parks, there is conclusive evidence that improved sanitation and no-feeding regulations reduce injuries resulting from human-bear encounters. Should you encounter an aggressive bear in the woods away from houses and humans remember this: Black bear aggression is most often the result of a human threatening a bear, its cubs, or a nearby food source, and the best reaction is to reduce that threatening appearance by leaving the area in a quiet, calm manner.
Keep your distance. If a bear shows up in your back yard, stay calm. Shout at it as you would to chase away an unwanted dog. Don't approach it. If the bear won't leave, call the nearest police department for assistance.
Eliminate temptation. Bears that visit your area are often drawn there. Neighbors need to work together to reduce an area's appeal to bears. Promptly report road-killed deer to ensure their quick removal. Ask local businesses to keep Dumpsters closed and bear-proofed (chained or locked shut).
Check, please! If your dog is barking or your cat is clawing at the door to get in, try to determine what has alarmed your pet. But do it cautiously, using outside lights to full advantage and from a safe position, such as a porch or an upstairs window. All unrecognizable outside noises and disturbances should be checked, but don't do it on foot with a flashlight. Black bears blend in too well with nighttime surroundings, providing the chance for a close encounter.
Discontinue feeding suet or bird seed to birds for the entire summer. Don't feed pets outside. Even empty dishes have enough residual odor to attract a bear.
Don't leave garbage outside houses or garages. Grease, fat, bacon and other meats are extremely attractive to bears. These items should be disposed of in sealed containers. Clean garbage cans and other refuse containers with ammonia, bleach or Lysol. Ammonia works great and is cheap. A compost pile also attracts bears.
At camping areas, empty garbage dumpsters after dinner to decrease the chance of attracting bears. Construction of a garbage storage facility may be necessary if dump facilities aren't open daily.
After cooking, turn the grill on high for several minutes to kill the smell of food.
DEC has posted information about black bears at: www.dec.state.ny.us
