Dog Tags For Dogs

Find all the information you need and read consumer reviews about dog tags for dogs that will ensure you get the best one for your dog.


Welcome to this particular section of the website. This section is designed for people who are looking at specific information regarding what type of information you would put on your dog name tags.

As has been discussed before, you may want to simply put your dog’s name, but we strongly advise that you go one step further, and add more important information that can be usefull should your pet become lost. Adding more information is always usefull and will certainly contribute to your pet finding its way back home more often than not, and so we suggest always adding more than is truly needed.

Typically, we suggest that your dog name tags have name information, your home address, and a phone number. Now if you are opting for an electronic name tag, then you may as well include medical information in the dog tag, which could save your dog’s life should the information be required if your pet is injured while you are not aware of it. If you’re going with the straight dog tag however, then nevermind

We also recommend that your dog tag have an extra phone number, and for this one we would like to introduce to you the idea of the websites who act as a third party in the sheltering of your dogs should your dogs become lost. These companies, when contacted, will in turn contact you to notice you of the event, so you can come and pick up your lost dog at a given location. While these companies charge a nominal fee, we believe the value is definately worth the few dollars per month spent to cover their services.

As dog owners, we have chosen to prevail ourselves of this service, and as such our dog tags have both our home phone numbers and the company’s phone number. Statistics are dramatically improving in your favor with the more information you add.

We know of owners who have gps tracking devices on their dog tags, which is certainly a viable alternative if you can afford it as well. The dog can then be found anywhere in the area covered by the gps system, and be retrieved from its location.

This altenative is somewhat more costly, and depends entirely on your needs. Just be aware that it exists if you so desire to prevail yourself from it.

As with other dog tags, you might want to check the connector about twice a year to ensure that it is working properly and is not overly loose, as this is ususally the main cause when it comes to dog tags disappearing suddenly.

Note that connectors are relatively inexpensive to replace. One last piece of advice would be to ensure that the character font size on your dog tag is big enough to be readable. Often times you see tiny sized scriptings on a dog tag and you cant help but wonder how this could have been fabricated. Bear in mind that the average person has to be able to read it.
