A dog tag, pet ID tag, or pet tag is a small flat tag worn on pets' collars or harnesses. Humane societies and rescue organizations recommend that dogs and cats wear these tags, which contain information to enable someone encountering a stray animal to contact the owner. Tags may make noise as animals move. A collar-mount tag, either slide-on or riveted-on, flat to a collar's surface, is silent and therefore eliminates the noise. A tag silencer encloses loose tags in a small neoprene pouch or a soft rubbery plastic ring around the edge of a tag and may reduce noise. The resemblance of human identification tags to this method of display led to military identification tags being called dog tags. ==Identifying information== Identifying information on dog tags may include: * On a license tag, the dog license number and contact information for the licensing organization *On a pet ID tag, the pet's name, owner's phone number(s), address, or a QR Code pointing to the pet's online profile, a reward offer, and a list of the animal's critical medical problems *On a microchip registry tag, an identifying number for the dog with a phone number for the registry. Some organizations recommend not putting a pet's name on an ID tag because, in an ownership dispute over a stray dog, the original owner could use the pet's name to demonstrate that the pet recognizes the name and therefore has an association with that owner. Others believe that a lost pet might feel more comfortable if strangers call it by its own name, so the name should be on the tag. Also, if a stray dog slips out of his collar, or is skittish, there is a greater chance of controlling him if his name is used. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pet tag」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
