Ring Pet Tag | Easy-to-use tag with QR code | Real-time scan alerts | Shareable Pet Profile | No subscription or fees

I had no idea these were a thing, and I am so happy I found them! So you have the Ring app. You scan the QR code and make a pet profile. They allow you to input anything imaginable. From basic pet things like your address and contacts, but it does not share this with the individual who scans it. Once scanned, it gives the information you have input, like height, weight, color, allergies, and things of that sort. There is an area to add additional information, and you can personalize the message seen by the individual who scanned the tag. My favorite part is that whoever scanned the tag, whether they reach out to you or not, Ring will automatically alert you that it has been scanned. If your pet is lost, you can activate a lost pet mode. It will alert your neighbors on the Ring app and share your pet information. It's extremely lightweight like a rabies tag.

Nice, safe, easy way to ensure my dogs have a chance of being found or turned in should they wander from home. There is no worse feeling than to lose much loved pets. Simple but hopefully effective especially since these QR and barcodes are pretty much universal these days. Other tags are a bit more proactive in their use of Blue tooth but also require batteries to operate. That's nearly impossible to actually do so in my opinion this is, a method I can trust to work if it's ever needed.

puts my mind at ease. i love this!! its durable, gives me good sense of security and the fit is well! not to big not to small! just perfect!!

kinda cool

UPDATED REVIEW (about 1 week after orig 1-star review)Overall, tag is great in concept and execution in real life scenario is handled very well. I wish I could give more than 5 stars because of my interactions with Ring after I couldn’t get the product to “work” during setup - after calling tech support and leaving 1-star review, Jess from Ring contacted me & left a message on how to get in touch with her. I sent some more info on the problem I was running into as well as a feature enhancement suggestion based on my recent experience (suggestion utilizes the gps coordinates of the scanning phone, preserving the finder’s anonymity while giving the pet owner some info about where the pet is). When Jess and I connected she explained (very politely) that based on privacy handling, the phone couldn’t technically call itself (dial your own number sometime, I dare you!). She also suggested testing from a different phone if I wanted to continue testing. The coolest part was she told me that my suggestion was a great idea and they were going to look at including it in the next release! What I loved about this interaction was-- The personal, direct support I got from Jess on behalf of Ring- The handing of how my issue was solved/explained- The handling of my feedback made me feel like Ring really cares about this product and wants it to be greatBecause the tag works AND my interactions with Ring (thanks again to Jess and also Alexis) I’ve got my pets tagged, I’m giving them as Xmas gifts, and I’m recommending them as great peace of mind insurance to anyone who’ll listen.The product only has one minor flaw (see orig review below) - the whole thing doesn’t work if you are testing it with the phone you used to set it up. Btw that’s not really the flaw, I can understand why they didn’t put in extra work on the corner case that the owner is trying to contact themselves to test the product. The flaw is that they don’t tell you anywhere that it won’t work with the same phone (and I’m not the only person that would want to test the tag). As long as that’s communicated during setup, I’m 1,000% in love with this product!ORIG REVIEW:Along with other reviewers, I agree that initial setup wasn’t super intuitive for the pet tags. You can create a pet profile independent of the tag, the tag setup is just associating the pet profile to the specific QR code.PROBLEM IS when I scan the QR code (like the dog was found by someone else):1. the owner’s phone gets notified correctly that someone scanned the tag.2. As the tag scanner, it tells me I can contact the owner via phone or sms - but for some reason, the phone number it texts is NOT MINE. (Not owner)It uses a completely different phone number - diff area code for a diff state, etc.When I call the number through the QR code it’s disconnected, nothing happens when I send texts through the app.I love this idea, but right now I’ve wasted $20 on two tags that don’t contact me if my dogs are found. I called Ring support team but first tech support wasn’t familiar with the product at all because it’s still so new. They’re going to research it and get back to me (I’ll update the review accordingly) but at this point it’s looking like I’m going to need to return these for refunds because they just don’t work.

I had bought one of these years ago and after a while, because there wasn't some sort of covering or plastic over the QR code, the QR code became smeared and no longer able to scan. The new one I just bought, they put a protective coating over the QR code so hopefully this lasts longer!

Every animal should have one!

Creative idea that makes great sense.
