Red Dingo Pet Tags

[pennyw74]

This might sound like a really dumb question but I just got my Red Dingo Pet Tag in the mail yesterday.

When I attach it to my puppy's collar, it hangs sideways because the loop is through the front of the tag.

What can I do to get it to hang straight so when you look at the dog, you can see the front of the tag?

I think you may have to use a key "ring" on it first. It should hang straight then.

edit: put the ring through the hole at the front of the tag, then attach the tag to the collars D ring via the key "ring".

If that makes sence.

That's what I did and that's why it doesn't hang straight. There's a D ring on his collar which I attached the split ring that came with the tag to which is also attached to the tag and that's why it hangs sideways.

If you look at:

You can see that the hole is sideways and that means that it hangs perfect.

Red Dingo have:

See the hole is in the front of the tag?

This means that it hands sideways

Ahh I see, You may have to use another split ring on the other split ring to get it hanging right? It would then turn it face forward.

So glad you could understand what I meant - I was starting to confuse myself.

That's what I though...another split ring but I was wondering if there was a better way.

I should have bought one from the other place - silly me.

The tag we have for our girl hangs right because it is like the pawprintpettags place.

Yup - I've put a charm on the d-ring of my dog's collars, and attached the split ring of the tag to the loop of the charm instead of the d-ring itself. Then it sits straight....

I love the tags like that, but Scout is forever losing his /sigh

So went the cheap and nasty look of a luggage plastic tag, with a laminated insert with name/ph number. Doubled it, so can be read from either side. Go figure, he's never lost that one and it only cost $1.50

This probably doesn't help but i have two Red Dingo tags and both mine sit front facing when on the dog. Can you post a pic?

Either use a second small split ring or an s-hook.

Try the s/s collar tags from here: http://www.boomerangtags.com/store/index.php?A=G&ID=4. I haven't lost one yet. US website, however postage to Australia is $2 and they usually arrive within 10 days.
