One of the first responsibilities as a pet owner is to make sure your puppy or dog has identification tags or even a id microchip. Having identifying tags or chips provide you with assurance that should your dog wander away from home, get lost, or stolen that they can be identified and gotten back to you!

There are two basic types of identifying products you can try! First is the basic license or id tag with collar. Usually these can be custom made tags in an assortment of colors and styles and types of plastic and metals that have a dog’s name, owners name, address, and perhaps your vet’s name. The downside to the tags is that they can be easily removed by dog thieves and you have a slim chance of being reunited with your beloved canine family member.

The other type of id you can get for your dog is the microchip. Microchips have been around a long time and have come a long way. The microchips are today function with a 134.2kHz in order to conform to internationally used microchip systems. Microchips are surgically implanted under your dog’s skin between their shoulder blades. It’s typically painless. The microchip itself is programmed with all the identifying information that you as the owner supply. It is then uploaded and stored in a national database. It takes a special scanner to read the microchip’s information, but this type of identity marker is better than the tags because it can’t be just ripped off and discarded.

Another form of identification that is typically low cost is tattooing. This is where your veterinarian would tattoo the inside of the ear or on the stomach with puppy’s name and your phone number. The only cons are that tattoos can be altered or fade and you don’t want to have to re-tattoo every time you change your phone number.
