found dog tag, Middlesex Fells near Lawrence Memorial in Medford

Not quite Davis Square, but this seems like as good a place to post this as anywhere. Wednesday, I found a dog tag on one of the trails in the Fells south of South Border Road near Lawrence Memorial Hospital in Medford. It is heart shaped, reddish, and has the following information:

RABIES VACC
BACK BAY
VETERINARY CL
BOSTON, MA
617-247-2273 [still need to call]

So, before I found the tag, I saw two separate piles of what looked to be white fluffy fur in the middle of the trail. I didn't stop to investigate, so I'm not 100% sure it was fur. Now, it was clean, but the two piles and the dog tag were no more than a 5 minute walk apart, and I have seen plenty of hawks and coyotes within a mile or two of the spot...
