In hot and humid countries like Singapore, it is important to choose a material that can withstand the weather, such as stainless steel. It is highly resistant to rust, corrosion, and wear and tear, ensuring durability and maximum comfort for your pet.
It is a common myth that micro-chipping can replace the need for pet tags. However, both forms of identification are important in emergency planning. A micro-chip will only help a lost pet if they are taken to a vet, animal shelter, or local council where a staff can scan the micro-chip. On the other hand, having a pet tag makes it easier for anyone who finds your lost pet to return them to you with less hassle.
The must-have information on a pet tag include your pet’s name, your primary phone number, and backup contact number. You may also add “Micro-chipped” or “Chipped” to help inform finders if your pet has a digital record.
Nowadays, pet tags have evolved to be a stylish fashion piece that reflects your pup’s personality, especially with the customisation trend. There is really no harm in going for a fun, customised pet tag with a collar, but remember that no matter how stylish a tag is, critical information like owner's contact, readability and durability are non-negotiable. You can have the best of both worlds and attach both a functional and decorative ID tag onto collar/harness if space permits. Make sure your pet tag fulfils these to strike the perfect balance between function and style!
If you realise that your dog’s tag is lost, get a new tag as soon as possible, and make sure that the new tag is securely attached to prevent future loss. With our selection of smart ID pet tags, your pet’s details are safely stored in the WAUDOG Smart ID app for easier setup with the new tag.
