The ASPCA recommends that it is equally important to have your pet tagged and microchipped for their safety in case they go missing. But having a physical tag on a collar provides the fastest and most reliable solution when a missing pet is found—the microchip is more like a backup plan if an animal’s information isn’t readily available. Plus, if your missing pet’s tag has your contact information on it, the person who finds them can call you right away, whether the vet’s office or shelter is open or not, and you will all avoid any fees, paperwork, or having to wait on hold while calling the microchip company.
On the other hand, there are cases where a pet who usually wears a collar outside escapes without it, slips out of their collar, or is stolen and has it removed, and that is where having a microchip comes in handy. In October 2019, a small, elderly terrier was found in Pittsburgh with a microchip that showed that she was registered to a family in Florida. The owner, who had lost the dog over twelve years earlier, was shocked to receive a call from shelter workers. It’s a mystery what the dog was doing for twelve years and how she managed to travel over a thousand miles without being checked by a vet or shelter sooner, but she will now spend her golden years back with the family that adopted her as a puppy.

Very cute but a word of advice from someone who works in a vet hospital.... please don't get tags in the shape of a bone like the ones seen here. If you have a wooden deck and your dog lays down the bone can slip in between the planks and get caught, leading to sometimes horrific results. Circular tags are much safer and still look super cute!

Not a good idea unless you want to have your dog stolen or impounded. The space that is being used to make jokes is better off saying MICROCHIPPED and giving the vet's address as well as your own contact details. Plus it's a bad idea to give away your gender as female, you should want people to think you are a big scary man called Vlad who will be hunting them down for the rest of thier life should they take your dog. Finally, if your dog gets lost, teach it some damn recall. It's simply not ok to be a sloppy lazy owner and losing your dog is certainly nothing to joke about.

In the UK it is illegal not to have your dog microchipped, for the microchip details to be out of date, and it's also a legal requirement to wear a collar tag at all times in public.

Grew up with lots of dogs and cats. Only put 2 things on their tags: "REWARD IF FOUND" and our phone number. These might be cute, but if one of my animals is lost, it's a serious matter.

Still has to have all the important information. The only thing wrong with these is that they are often quite large in order to accommodate all the text.

Double sided tags, people. On one side is my dog's name and my phone. Other side says something short and funny and MICROCHIPPED on the bottom. "I can't hold my licker" is what my lab mix has.
