QR pet ID tags give finders a direct route to an updateable pet profile. This guide explains scanning, privacy choices, profile setup and the role of QR identification in a broader recovery plan.
How a QR pet ID tag works
- A finder scans the QR code with a compatible phone and opens the pet profile; no unverified app requirement should be stated.
- The owner controls whether profile information is public, password protected or private.
What to include in the profile
- Use current contact details, backup contacts and information useful during a lost-pet recovery.
- WhatPaw profiles support vaccine reminders and profile activation.
What QR identification is not a substitute for
- Present QR identification as one layer in a broader identification plan, not a guarantee of recovery.
