INCREASES COMPLIANCE

Proven value-add to dog registration, increasing compliance

When incorporated into dog registration, Doggone tags provide owners with additional value for their registration fee, and can incentivise them to register (and re-register) on time to ensure they have ongoing access to Doggone’s text reunite service for their dog.

Doggone also benefits councils at registration time with each tag storing up to date ownership information and valuable pet information, ensuring data-keeping is simple and seamless resulting in saved time resources for council if they need to contact owners.

In our two-year Lower Hutt pilot with our beta offering, over 87%of

participants said that Doggone should be included in dog registration. Since then, 99% of pet owners who have experienced Doggone’s text reunite tags have said they would pay for Doggone’s service if it was incorporated in to dog registration.
