Choosing the right pet tag for your dogs and cats

If you've been checking out dog & cat groups on Facebook, you would have seen the big jump in the number of members in the last years.

With the growing number of pet owners, we thought of coming up with a list of things to check out when getting your dogs and cats their own pet tags. 

First things first though, let me tell you how important it is for your fur babies to have a tag. Here's a little story from a pet owner herself that was shared on our wall:

"I've bought 3 tags from you and their all great! When my gate broke and 2 of the three dogs wandered out, they were later found by a kind man who checked their tags. I got a call while I was out of the country and my two furry babies were returned home. If we didn't have these tags, my dogs could've been lost forever."

Now, you may be thinking it's about time to get your dog or cat a pet tag. 

Here are some things to check out to make sure you get exactly what your pet needs & that you get your money's worth for your purchase.

1. Check out the design. Make sure there are no pointed edges that could scratch or even get your pet wounded.  
2. Ask about the material used. Most commonly used metal for pet tags is aluminum. Aluminum is a soft metal that can be bent by even the smaller breeds. And for the big breeds, it's child's play to fold it up & break it.Your best bet is to have a tag in brass or stainless steel as these are hard metals
3. Sizes. Make sure to get one that's perfect for your dog's breed & size. 
4. Do not go for colored tags. Of course they're cute! But a little rough playing by our fur balls will get the colors scratched & that's not exactly cute anymore.
5. Check how the pet tag would hang on your pet's collar. Would it be hanging by a ring? Is there a possibility that the ring opens up & the tag then falls off? Would be good to be mindful of this.
6. Do they offer an after service? Always a good after thought with anything we purchase. When repairs are offered, then you get more value for your money.

When we were designing our pet tags for Pet Tag World, we had these pet owners concerns in mind. So, we took every effort to address each of this and the result is this:

• Pet Tags made of thick brass, stainless steel or a combination of both. Even big breed dogs cannot break this metals
• A wide range of sizes to suit every breed & size. We do not use pre made pet tags. Instead, we cut our own metals so this allows us to customize sizes accordingly.
• A bail riveted into the tag to make sure the tag never falls off from your dog's collar.
• Stainless Steel rings are used to hang the tags so there will be no tarnishing or rusting
• Repairs & replacement of parts are accepted at minimal costs
