Yes they are!  Just ask the thousands of pups who are still wearing their first tag that they’ve had for years! Of course, wear and tear and how rough and tumble your pup is has an impact, but we know from experience that the tags hold up to even the toughest customer play!

Please check our Shipping Policies page for this information as it changes depending on the season.

Doggonetags items are created from 3 different colors of metal.  Each tarnishes over time. While we can’t tell you how long that will take (because it depends on each dog and each environment), we can tell you it will happen. 

You can keep your tag shiny by using a polishing pad to buff it up on occasion. Please do not use a polishing liquid as it takes all the patina off. Patina helps show off details like your pet’s name and phone number. 

On occasion, your pup might do what pups do and go tromping through the mud. No fear about your tag! Simply wash it off in a mild detergent and warm water and wipe dry. If you want to keep it shiny, we suggest doing that as often as necessary and then buffing it with a micro polishing pad. Those can be purchased in our shop or in most craft stores.

Because your number has been either hand stamped or engraved, it’s not possible to change the number on the ID tag.
