Love passes through a hand that caresses and reaches a tail that wags (cit. anonymous)
You never own a cat. If anything you are admitted to his life, which is certainly a privilege (Beryl Reid)
Microchip and tag: two complementary tools
Microchip and tag are complementary tools for identifying the dog or cat and its owner. Both help to make it easier to recognize the animal and can facilitate contact with the owner in the event of loss.
The microchip represents the official dog identification system (mandatory in Italy since 2005).
It is a small capsule inserted under the skin via injection, which contains a unique 15-digit numerical code, associated with the animal and owner's data registered at the regional canine registry.
Reading the microchip requires a special reader, generally supplied to veterinarians and competent authorities.
The personalized tag, applied to the collar, allows you to directly report useful contact information for the owner.
In the event of loss, it can allow whoever finds the animal to contact the owner without waiting for the microchip to be read at an authorized facility.
It is advisable that your dog or cat always wears an identification tag, especially when it is taken outside the home, during walks, trips or travel.
A responsible choice
Microchip and tag, used together, represent a simple and responsible solution to facilitate the identification of the animal.
Making updated contact information available is a choice that depends on the attention and care of the owner.
SOS-BAU and SOS-MIAO, the new tags with NFC technology
SOS-BAU and SOS-MIAO, dedicated to our four-legged friends, represent an evolution of the traditional identification tag.
These are digital devices that allow useful information about the animal and the owner to be associated with the collar, making it accessible via NFC technology.
In addition to the owner's contact details, you can enter information such as:
-
number of microchips;
-
race and identifying characteristics;
-
date of birth;
-
photograph;
-
any health information voluntarily provided by the owner.
It is also possible to note down information relating to the animal's health status, allergies or ongoing treatments, as well as keep track of the vaccination calendar via the dedicated platform.
Thanks to NFC technology, the tag can be consulted by bringing a compatible smartphone closer, without the need to install applications.
In case of loss or need, the person scanning can access the information made available by the owner.
Consultation depends on the compatibility of the device used and the initiative of the person doing the reading.
SOS-BAU and SOS-MIAO are voluntary tools that allow the owner to make useful information available in a simple and immediate way.
The SOS-BAU and SOS-MIAO tags are made of plexiglass and resin, water and impact resistant materials.
An NFC chip is integrated between the layers, a widely used technology, the same used for contactless payments and already present in most compatible Android and iOS smartphones.
Totally Made in Italy, the SOS-BAU and SOS-MIAO tags are accessible, simple to use and customizable with the information that the owner deems useful to make available in case of need.
