I remember some company selling removable stickers with a picture of a screw on it for people to put over the heart on these stickers.

That way, unbeknownst to the driver, they would tell the world:

I (screw) my German Shephard.

Do you mean ♦?

Change the font to Times New Roman. I have Windows XP. It may not work on a Mac.
