Thanks! Unfortunately that was a county in the Northwest Territory pre-Michigan. It would have been changed around 100 years before the date on my tag.
I wish that wasn't the case. I would love it if my tag was local or at-least from Michigan....

That is 100% for sure a Knox County OHIO dog tag
Found this tag in Mount Pleasant MI.
I didn't find a "knox" Colorado, is that a company name maybe, or county?
Any information would be appreciated

(Responding to my own post) Wow! I just noticed how elongated the hole is, and how the sides of the cross are hammered and flaired out! The dog must have had that on his collar for years!

Been at least a year since last one I found. This one is twenty years older. Heading in the right direction. Probably be back again next year.
Enjoy.
Enjoy.

My "dog" related stuff, 
I have seen a "Walkerville" MT. tag just like the one I have, except with a year of 1900, it was listed as a dog tag, so I guess mine might be as well....

Seems odd for something like that to be found out of state, as already noted. But at least you'd expect to find it to the west of its origin during that period of history, not east! I guess people did sometimes find they didn't like the life out here, and headed back to "civilization".
One year older than my Stillwater tag... sweet! I want to dig one now!

I sent these to your email as well but here are a couple I have found. I've found PLENTY more modern ones on the beach, but I usually just toss them out. If I come across more, old or modern, I'll post them here or send them to you via email again for your data base.
1924 and 1927 Bucks County Pa Licenses and one from Imperial Beach Ca from the early or mid-80's. IB is pretty much the LAST US beach on the west coast before you hit the Mexican border.

Except for Border Field State Park, you are correct.

I guess if they don't have dates it doesn't count-
