Custom dog tags questions, answered.
Everything buyers ask before they order — minimums, timings, artwork and print options.
What is the minimum order?
Our minimum order is just 12 tags — enough for a small team or a first shelter batch — with bulk pricing tiers as quantities grow.
How fast will my dog tags arrive?
Your free mockup lands within 24 hours and finished tags ship in about 2 weeks — express turnaround is available when a date is fixed.
What is the difference between embossed and engraved?
Embossing presses raised characters into steel and is the original military method — it cannot wear off. Laser engraving cuts into the surface and holds finer detail, logos and small artwork. We recommend whichever suits how the tag will be used.
Can every tag carry different text?
Yes. Variable data is standard here — send a spreadsheet with one row per tag and every piece comes back individually marked at no extra setup.
Which material should I choose?
Stainless for anything worn daily, anodized aluminum when color and light weight matter, brass or copper for keepsakes that should age, and coated aluminum when the tag has to carry a photograph.
Do the tags come with chains?
Yes — a beaded neck chain is included as standard, with short chains, split rings, S-hooks and silicone-sleeved chains available depending on the tag.
Can you engrave a logo as well as text?
Yes. Send whatever artwork you have and our design team redraws it as clean vector art for free, then shows it on the tag at actual size before anything is marked.
Can I order a sample first?
Our minimum of 12 exists so you can hold the thing before committing to a full run — order a small batch, check it in the hand, then scale up on the same file.
