- Text is hand-formatted for every item - engraved items on separate orders/placed at different times may differ from one another.

Graphics
We can engrave simple graphics on Jingle Free Tags, however they do require extra space and additional formatting considerations, so please reach out to us to inquire. Below you'll see examples of the graphics we currently have. Click here for a full resolution image.
CNC engraving vs laser engraving
Our buckles and tags are engraved with a diamond-tipped CNC machine, never a laser! Laser engraving is used by nearly all other collar companies - lasers are inexpensive but only burn the top surface coating of buckles. This etching often wears off the buckle in a short time. Our engraver physically removes metal and surface coating to provide a longer-lasting, professional engraving when compared to laser-etched products.
While our engraving process is vastly superior to most "laser etched" products on the market, care should still be taken to protect your items from friction damage.
The easiest way to do this is to avoid hanging metal objects near your tag! Hanging tags, lights, and other gizmos that swing or rub against engraved tags will inevitably cause premature wear and tear. Instead, fasten these items at the adjustment slide or a mini tag ring so they cannot make contact with your tag. Similarly, if you wash your engraved item, remove it first or protect it by placing it inside a garment bag or a sock so it doesn't get beat up in the washer/dryer.
Choosing the correct size
It is crucial that you choose the size tag opening that matches the width of your collar. Measure carefully!
3/8” tags fit 3/8” wide and thin/flexible 1/2” wide collars
5/8” tags fit 5/8” wide collars
3/4” tags fit 3/4” wide collars
1” tags fit 1” wide collars
1.25" tags fit 1.25” wide collars
1.5” tags fit 1.5” wide collars
2" tags fit 2” wide collars
Buying for Biothane?
Our tags will NOT fit adjustable Biothane collars with buckles at both ends. Biothane is not flexible enough to bend to fit into the slots.
If your collar has a free end to thread through the slots, this tag will work!
If buying a Biothane collar from us, we can install the tag during construction. This option is permanent.
returns
This item is not eligible for return or exchange.
Please double-check text and size before placing your order.
RETIRED & DISCONTINUED COLORS. Once they're gone, they're gone forever!
Sizes shown are all that we have left.
ORCHID is low contrast. Great for privacy in public spaces like dog parks. May be difficult to read from a distance or with long lines of text.
Color-coated stainless steel tags
Do you hate the constant jingle of traditional tags? Does your pet lose or chew their traditional hanging tags? Do hanging tags clang on food and water dishes, startling your pet? And worst of all, do your hanging tags wear out after a few weeks or months, leaving the text illegible?
Look no further, your search for the BEST pet tag is over! Each tag is engraved with your text and then contoured to fit comfortably on your pet’s collar or harness. These tags will fit just about any single-ply webbing or fabric collar* – whether your collar is a martingale, harness, adjustable flat collar, or classic belt-buckle type collar, Jingle-Free tags will fit!
* some thin fabric collars lack the rigidity needed to retain tags of this design. Applying the tag over two layers of the collar is usually all that's needed to hold it tight!
SIZING
