FIDO LOST DOG MEMBER ID TAGS

1. FIDO offers free ID tags to facilitate the retrieval of lost dogs. Especially
useful when you frequent an out of town area where the cellphone service
craps out.

To preserve privacy, the tags have no owner identifying information
on them, just various ways to contact FIDO (via phone or email) and
a unique Tag ID. Finders of lost dogs are to phone/email FIDO and
report the tag ID, along with contact information of the person holding
the dog.

2. FIDO Tags are available through Coffee Barks only to people who are
members of FIDO; you may join FIDO at a Coffee Bark this to get a tag.

3. When you visit Coffee Bark ask for the tag registrar.

4. The registrar will confirm that you are a FIDO member or ask you to join.

A. VERY IMPORTANT! Confirm that we have your correct telephone
number and/or email so we can contact you. Ensure that we have these
items CORRECTLY RECORDED IN OUR REGISTRY.

B. VERY IMPORTANT! If you are joining FIDO to get tags for your dog,
write your contact information: email, telephone number, and mail address
LEGIBLY on the application form. If we can't read these, we cannot contact
you regarding your lost/found pooch.

5. You will be issued however many metal tags you need for your various canine
friends. You will also be given a receipt card bearing your assigned tag numbers.
Keep this receipt in a safe place so, in the event you misplace a dog or two, you'll
still know the assigned tag numbers.

6. Please don't misplace your tags. Each tag is uniquely numbered and replacing
one is tantamount to re-registering. While tags are initially free, re-registering will
involve some extra overhead and likely involve some cost.

7. Please be considerate of FIDO volunteers: Like you, they have dogs to leash
up and a table or six to pack away before the nine o'clock hour. If you want to
get a tag, please make your request no later than 8:30 AM. Thank you.
