The Technology Behind QR Pet Tags
Losing a pet is a distressing experience for any pet owner. Traditional identification methods like engraved tags and microchips have helped reunite many pets with their families — but today’s technology offers an even smarter solution.
At Canvas Cowboy Pets, we’ve embraced QR technology to create a simple, powerful way to keep pets safe and bring them home faster.
What Are QR Pet Tags?
QR (Quick Response) pet tags are modern digital ID tags that store essential information about your pet.
When someone scans the tag using their smartphone, they’re instantly taken to a pet profile that contains your contact details, the pet’s medical info, and any special instructions — all in one place.
How Do QR Pet Tags Work?
-
Each Tag Has a Unique QR Code
Every QR tag links to a secure online profile for your pet. -
You Create the Profile
Once you receive your tag, you will download our free IOS/Android app, log in and fill in your pet’s name, your contact number, vet details, allergies, and more. -
Someone Scans the Tag if Your Pet is Lost
When scanned, the finder sees your pet’s profile and can contact you immediately — no app for the finder needed! -
You Get Notified Instantly
You’ll receive an alert with the location where your pet’s tag was scanned.
Why Are QR Tags Better Than Traditional Tags?
-
Updatable Anytime
You can change your contact info, address, or vet details without needing a new tag. -
More Information
Unlike standard tags, QR tags can hold details about allergies, medications, and behavioral needs. -
Real-Time Alerts
You get notified the moment someone scans your pet’s tag — no waiting or guessing. -
No Microchip Scanner Needed
Anyone with a smartphone can help, instantly.
