How Do You Choose A Pet ID Tag?
If your precious pet should ever get lost (heaven forbid), the first thing the kind person who finds her or the shelter where he ends up will check–is the ID tag–and choosing the right one requires a little more thought than you might think. Here are some things to consider when deciding on a pet tag. First and foremost, you want a durable tag that will last and withstand whatever terrain or test your pet puts it through with letters that won’t wear off easily. If it’s a well-made tag, either thick plastic or metal should hold up; however, stainless steel is considered the longest lasting. Certain companies offer lifetime guarantees. Pick out a shape and color. Pet tags come in a variety of shapes including circles, hearts and dog bones. Choose a color to match the collar or one that will show up best with your dog’s coat. For instance, a purple tag may clash with an orange collar and a tan tag may blend in too much with a tan coat. Choose a reflective tag that will show up at night.
