2. My pet has a microchip. Do I need an i.d tag too? You need both because: 1) I.d. Tags are visible; microchips aren't; 2) People carry cell phones and can call if your pet is loose (if you've provided them with a phone number on an i.d.tag), not scanners to read microchips; and 3) If your pet loses its collar or tag before it's found, the microchip will act as its second line of defense. 3. Of what material should a pet tag be made? I recommend brass; it's long-lasting, classy and won't rust. 4. How should a pet tag be made? For maximum durability, a tag should be stamped, not engraved. This is because stamping makes a deeper impression on the tag's surface than engraving and the deeper the letters and numbers on the tag, the longer it will last. 5. What should go on a tag? Your tag should have your pet's name, so the kind-hearted soul who wants to help can calm your friend and gain its confidence. It should also have as many phone numbers as are necessary to insure that when this person calls, he will be able to speak to someone at one of those numbers, and not get voice mail at all of them. (For some people, just their cell phone numbers will do the trick.) 6. What about putting an address on the tag? Most people would prefer that you pick up your friend. They don't want to put strange animals in their cars and deliver them. This is because they may have appointments, be uncertain about how to get to your home, have their own pets in their cars, or any of a host of other reasons. Moreover, if you've put the right combination of phone numbers on your pet's tag, you (or someone close to you) will be speaking to the finder within moments after he's gotten your friend under control. When this happens, there's no need for additional stuff on the tag, since you and the Good Samaritan can make immediate arrangements to reunite you with your dog or cat. Beyond being unnecessary, there are some risks you take when you put your address on a pet tag. These are: 1) You may invite a burglary from someone who knows your dog isn’t home, has your address, and can call to see if you’re there. 2) If you pay a reward for your pet’s safe return, the person who collects it will know where to petnap your critter if he wants another reward. 3) If a well-meaning soul finds your pet close to your house, he may figure that all is well and that your kitty or pooch is just out for a neighborhood walk. 4) Someone may deliver your pet when you’re not home to make sure it remains there. 7. Shouldn't my name be on the tag? The Good Samaritan probably doesn't care what your name is when he stops to help. He only wants to tell you that he's found your pet and arrange to return it. If you want him to know your name, you can introduce yourself when you're talking. 8. Doesn't knowing my pet's name help someone who wants to steal him? Perhaps, but ask yourself how many people leave their houses to cruise the streets looking for lost pets to steal. Isn't it much more likely that anyone who stops to corral your pet left his house with something else in mind (e.g., errands, an appointment) and has stopped to help? Don't you want to "play the odds" in this situation and give the Good Samaritan every advantage he can have? Consider too that anyone who stops to steal your pet, will probably have made the decision to steal him before he even gets out of his car and reads the tag. In other words, he will steal your pet whether he knows your pet's name or not! Being stolen would be hard enough on your friend. Wouldn't having to learn a new name make it worse? 9. Which name do I use if my pet has more than one? If your pet is lost, it may be disoriented and frightened. Give the Good Samaritan every advantage and use the name to which your pet is most accustomed. 10. How about putting "reward" on the tag? This one's a "toss-up". Most people who take the time to intercept a lost pet are not doing it for money. The proof of this is that when they are coaxing your pet to come to them, they haven't yet seen the tag offering a reward. The reward for these folks is your gratitude and the knowledge that your dog or cat has been rescued. If it will fit, and you want an extra line on your tag with "reward" on it, go ahead. It won't stop the people who aren't looking for money, and may motivate a small group to invest the time to make sure that you and your pet are reunited. The only negatives are that some people who would have been happy without a reward will now ask for one, and that--if you disclose your address--the reward-taker will know that you're willing to pay one and also know where to get your pet again. 11. What if I want more phone numbers on a tag than the tag can accommodate? The larger the tag, the more room is available for multiple phone numbers. If the tag you like best has insufficient space for all of the numbers you want on it, you'll need to consider a different one. 12. I know my pet should have a tag, but the jingling drives me crazy. What can I do? Each of the "Collar-Mount"™ tags has two holes and comes with two rivets. Each is designed to be mounted flat on a collar's surface, instead of hanging from its "D" ring (where the leash is attached). Once it is mounted, its surface is contacting only air, not other tags, or hardware on the collar, so it is silent. You can minimize noise from hanging tags by taping them back-to-back with two-sided tape. 13. Are all tags stamped to a uniform depth? No. The depth of my stamped impressions is greater than engraving. However, small differences in the composition and thickness of different tags means that the letters and numbers on some tags will be slightly deeper than others. 14. What are your shipping and handling charges? At checkout, $0.99 will be added to your total for shipping and handling. This charge will be the same no matter how many tags you order.

However, small differences in the composition and thickness of different tags means that the letters and numbers on some tags will be slightly deeper than others. 14. What are your shipping and handling charges? At checkout, $0.99 will be added to your total for shipping and handling. This charge will be the same no matter how many tags you order.
9. Which name do I use if my pet has more than one? If your pet is lost, it may be disoriented and frightened. Give the Good Samaritan every advantage and use the name to which your pet is most accustomed. 10. How about putting "reward" on the tag? This one's a "toss-up". Most people who take the time to intercept a lost pet are not doing it for money. The proof of this is that when they are coaxing your pet to come to them, they haven't yet seen the tag offering a reward. The reward for these folks is your gratitude and the knowledge that your dog or cat has been rescued. If it will fit, and you want an extra line on your tag with "reward" on it, go ahead. It won't stop the people who aren't looking for money, and may motivate a small group to invest the time to make sure that you and your pet are reunited. The only negatives are that some people who would have been happy without a reward will now ask for one, and that--if you disclose your address--the reward-taker will know that you're willing to pay one and also know where to get your pet again. 11. What if I want more phone numbers on a tag than the tag can accommodate? The larger the tag, the more room is available for multiple phone numbers. If the tag you like best has insufficient space for all of the numbers you want on it, you'll need to consider a different one. 12. I know my pet should have a tag, but the jingling drives me crazy. What can I do? Each of the "Collar-Mount"™ tags has two holes and comes with two rivets. Each is designed to be mounted flat on a collar's surface, instead of hanging from its "D" ring (where the leash is attached). Once it is mounted, its surface is contacting only air, not other tags, or hardware on the collar, so it is silent. You can minimize noise from hanging tags by taping them back-to-back with two-sided tape. 13. Are all tags stamped to a uniform depth? No. The depth of my stamped impressions is greater than engraving. However, small differences in the composition and thickness of different tags means that the letters and numbers on some tags will be slightly deeper than others. 14.
