A bone-shaped dog tag with a rainbow multicolour finish that changes from tag to tag - no two alike, ever. Deep laser-engraved on both sides in our Surrey workshop: name on the front, ID and contact details on the back, with 28 symbols and 10 fonts to choose from.

The classic bone, in its boldest finish

Under the rainbow is 2mm-thick stainless steel - the same hard-wearing spec as every tag we cut. Each tag's mix of tones forms naturally in the finish, so yours is genuinely one of one. Lettering is engraved deep into the metal, never printed, so it cannot fade or peel. Waterproof, rust-resistant, and light enough for every day of the adventure.

• Small (30 x 18mm, 5g) - cats, kittens, puppies and toy breeds like chihuahuas and yorkies
• Medium (40 x 21mm, 6g) - most breeds, from puppyhood up
• Large (50 x 29mm, 8g) - retrievers, shepherds and wider collars

Two stainless steel split rings in the box: the small one holds the tag, the large one loops the collar's D-ring.

Keep the layout simple

With a finish this colourful, one bold name on the front reads best - try OSCAR with a bone symbol and the preview shows the tag as you type. You have up to 3 lines if you want them, and 5 lines on the back for the official details. 28 symbols, 10 fonts.

Buy 2 tags and save 15%; 3 or more saves 25%.

What UK law puts on a dog tag

The owner's name and address, whenever the dog is out in public. A phone number is not required by law, but it is the first thing that gets a lost dog home - add a mobile. Name or symbol on the front; surname, house number, street, postcode and phone on the back.

To order, from Surrey

Engraved and hand-checked by our small UK team - never drop-shipped - which is how the range holds 4.9 out of 5 across 200+ reviews. Bailey the cockapoo snores through most of it, but nothing leaves without a proper check. Questions about the finish or the fit? Ask - you will reach the person who makes the tags, and we are dog owners too.

Care

Wipe with a damp cloth after wet, sandy or muddy walks. Skip bleach and scouring pads, and replace a split ring as soon as it starts to open.

Questions

Will mine look exactly like the photos? Close but not identical - the rainbow tones vary naturally from tag to tag. Yours will be the only one with its exact pattern.

Which bone size should I choose? Small (30 x 18mm) for cats, kittens and the toy breeds; Medium (40 x 21mm) suits most dogs from puppy to adult; Large (50 x 29mm) is scaled for the bigger breeds.

Will the engraving fade? No - the details are cut into the steel itself, so there is no surface print to wear off.

Do I have to engrave both sides? No - one side is fine. Most go name front, contact details back.
