The bond began at San Diego Zoo over 30 years ago and has since spread worldwide—like Kumbali the cheetah and Kago the lab‑mix, now inseparable at Virginia’s Metro Richmond Zoo. While the big cats don’t wear collars, your dog should sport a secure collar and ID tag.

A little preparation ensures your pet enjoys summer safely and itch-free.

We love our pets…lost dogs can sometimes never be reunited with their owners and even worse, face serious injury when roaming around unsupervised. Our Smart Tags…feature scannable QR codes and NFC, revealing owner info, medical needs and even GPS location to anyone who finds your pet. In the UK, tags are required by law under the Control of Dogs Order 1992, complementing microchipping since 2016.
If you want the person who finds your pet to have more information, consider getting a Smart Tag. When scanned or tapped, it brings up your pet’s profile—complete with multiple contact methods, vet details, and medical information. Smart Tags can even email you the pet’s GPS location, offering peace of mind if they wander off.
