Dear Reubens the Royal

Dear Reubens the Royal,

In reply to your notice I am offering my services, I have very little knowledge of dogs but have a great respect for the cat especially when I come across one as clever as this one...

However, I am willing to learn and I have plenty of carrier bags for your special needs. 

Now you ask about a seal well I have been investigating and am wondering if the following will be of use to you..

Darius I (Old Persian Dârayavauš): king of ancient Persia, whose reign lasted from 522 to 486. He seized power after killing king Gaumâta, fought a civil war (described in the Behistun inscription), and was finally able to refound the Achaemenid empire, which had been very loosely organized until then. Darius fought several foreign wars, which brought him to India and Thrace. When he died, the Persian empire had reached its largest extent. He was succeeded by his son Xerxes.

Alternatively there is the above, mmm maybe not, it looks as though once again it may belong to a family and I doubt whether it will fit your paw.

There are many, many seals belonging to different reigns, families, cultures and religions.  It is quite interesting to read if one is totally interested but I think perhaps the following will be your bowl of water...
It has a loop to it which you can attach to your collar.  Hope this will be of service to you, if it is please meet me outside by my van.
 
Yours sincerely
Dastardly the Dog Catcher.
