In an effort to assist pet owners in finding their lost animals, Ring, a company owned by Amazon, has launched Pet Tags. These tags feature a QR code that can be scanned by a helpful passerby. Once scanned, the owner of the pet is automatically notified that their furry friend has been located. The rescuer is also able to access the pet’s profile, which contains all the necessary information.

Furthermore, the rescuer can contact the owner through the Ring app without obtaining their phone number. To enhance the search for lost pets, users can share their pet profile on the Ring online community and the Petco Love Lost network, a national repository for lost and found animals.

The Ring mobile app also includes a Lost Pet Mode, allowing users to post pet profiles on the community page and establish communication with neighbors who also use Ring products. The Pet Tag from Ring is available in silver and will start shipping on October 4, 2023. If you are interested in alternative options to ensure your pet’s safety, you may consider Apple AirTags, Fi Smart Dog Collar Series 3, Whistle GO Explore, Tractive GPS Dog LTE Tracker, or the Tile Pro, among others.
