They last for years, even with hard, outdoor use. I just toss them in the washer in a hosiery bag a couple of times a year to keep them clean. They're easy to read, even on quite small dogs. <br /><br />Our dogs are all chipped, as well, but as you note that's the line of last defense. I'd rather someone in the neighborhood call me than have a chip scanned (or not) at animal control.Carolyn Horowitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05324692788182826870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684843.post-32028912784167561702010-07-23T19:59:04.058-04:002010-07-23T19:59:04.058-04:00I plan on using these once I have my own dog.

I guess the rabies and license tags will go into "Quiet bags," but I do want one of those Collartags!<br /><br />Because I'll probably be moving often, I only plan to put the dog's name and at least two phone numbers on it. I know that knowing the dog's name can give someone a lot of control, but it also makes it easier to catch the dog or hold it. Plus, you can always train commands in a non-English language!Viateciohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08523551407472141202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684843.post-91082123991852930422010-07-23T11:48:38.493-04:002010-07-23T11:48:38.493-04:00Love these tags - all our dogs have them.

They are so sturdy that we ask adopters to mail them back when they get their own ID on their new Jack.<br />Great company.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04550417883194218318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684843.post-83529743121021746682010-07-23T06:39:12.056-04:002010-07-23T06:39:12.056-04:00I've used these tags for years and haven't...I've used these tags for years and haven't kept track of the number of times my dogs, especially the Houdini Jindo, have gotten come home quickly - in several different countries - because of them.<br /><br />A tip: because the tag doesn't dangle, dog-finders don't always realize it's there. I use a heavy needle and thread to fasten the tags to the side of the collar opposite the buckle with a double stitch through the collar from the top, around the tab on the underside, repeat twice and tie off. This holds the tag on the top of the dog's neck where it is easy to see.Cassandra Was Righthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14329209006766816889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684843.post-88879883580308553262010-07-22T22:51:24.986-04:002010-07-22T22:51:24.986-04:00"What am I waiting for?"

I put REWARD very large so that even a knucklehead might return the dog. The dog's name is important to controlling the dog, especially a valuable hunting dog. Don't give them that piece of information and a reason to keep the dog.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13877910729727346340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684843.post-22377866785382201992010-07-22T14:09:46.769-04:002010-07-22T14:09:46.769-04:00YES!!

I have had these tags for my dogs for at least 8 years, and can not say enough about them, they are great!! <br />The one downside is that you have to LOOK at the collar to find the tag, and around here I've found that some people just aren't quite that with-it, if there isn't a tag hanging off they assume there isn't a tag. But the ONE time my dog got loose and I was unaware of it, the lady a few doors down did grab her and found the Collar Tag and called me and actually brought her home! Highly recommend them!<br /><br />If you use a nylon collar with a plastic buckle, the split Collar Tags work just the same as the slide ones, and as long as you've bought the correct size (ie a 1" hole to fit on a 1" width collar)- they're a bit difficult to get on, but WON'T come off! Buy one for every collar!<br /><br />Kim<br />with Banner and flyKimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00101834479482180967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684843.post-82335425510903280672010-07-22T08:14:27.528-04:002010-07-22T08:14:27.528-04:00I'm gonna look into it.

A slide tag wouldn't make any sound.Mongoosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13545512692510569390noreply@blogger.com
