Why Brass Tags Are Perfect for Water-Loving Dogs
If your dog is never happier than when splashing in the sea, prancing in rivers, or rolling in woodland puddles, you’ll know just how important it is to invest in accessories that can last. That’s why brass tags are perfect for water. Not only are they robust and reliable, they stand up to the elements far better than other alternatives.
In this blog, we’ll explore why brass tags are a smart choice for dogs that love the water and how they can give you peace of mind, no matter how muddy the walk or wild the wave.
Built For Durability
When it comes to dogs who live for adventure, durability is essential. Materials, such as stainless steel, or plastic tags may bend or become brittle when exposed to harsh conditions or changing temperatures. Brass, on the other hand, is highly resistant to corrosion- even when regularly exposed to water.
Whether you’re heading to the coast or hiking through streams, a well made brass tag won’t let you down. That’s why brass tags are perfect for water, they’re designed to stay strong and legible, even in the most challenging environments.
Legibility That Lasts
One of the most important features of any pet tag is how easily your information can be read. After all, if your dog gets lost during a walk, a clear tag is the first step to getting them home quickly.
At Engraving Studios, we use deep mill engraving and infill with black paint to create crisp, long-lasting lettering that won’t rub off or fade, even after repeated exposure to salt water or rain. For owners of water-loving dogs, it’s a practical investment that helps keep your pet safe.
Meets Legal Requirements
The Control of Dogs Order, 1992, requires dogs, by law, to wear a tag that includes their owner’s name and address, even if they’re microchipped.
Brass tags are an ideal way to meet this standard. Their resilience means that your details stay legible over time, even with regular outdoor use. With our tags, we also have the space to add other vital pieces of information such as phone numbers, medical conditions and dietary restrictions. Our policy with engraving is that if it fits, it’s free!
Easy To Maintain
Brass can develop a natural patina over time, but this won’t affect the legibility or performance of your tag. Should you want to restore your brass tag to its original shiny appearance, they are really easy to clean. We’ve written a blog on how to clean your brass products, you can read it here.
Reinforced Brass Tags
For extra durability, we have crafted our Reinforced Brass Tags. These tags have a stainless steel lined split ring hole, which prevents the split ring from wearing through. Perfect for the water or woodland explorations!
Summary
For dogs who swim, roll, dig, and dash – brass tags are the ideal partner. Unlike cheaper materials, they won’t crack or snap under pressure, and they’re far less likely to become unreadable when exposed to rough play or wet conditions.
If you’re the proud owner of a dog who lives for the great outdoors, consider switching to a tag that can keep up. Brass tags are perfect for water… and everything else your dog might dive into!
