We help take the worry out of leaving your pets alone, ensuring that there's a trusted guardian in place and ready should your pet need care that you're unable to provide. Now, we're tackling a new potential pet problem.
With the growing number of stray animals entering shelters and the heart-wrenching reality of lost pets, seamless identification has never been more critical. We've decided to double down on our efforts to provide ultimate protection for pets.

Join us to review the rationale for ensuring your pet has up-to-date identification and discover how Pangel™ is revolutionizing pet safety and helping to reunite lost pets with their families.
Why Animals Need Pet Tag Protection
Many pets go missing due to accidents, escape from homes, or during travel. Without identification, it becomes nearly impossible for shelters to reunite lost pets with their owners.
This often leads to those pets being surrendered to shelters and, in some cases, never being reclaimed.
According to the national database Shelter Animals Count, the number of strays entering U.S. shelters increased by 8% from 2022 to 2023 and has increased by 26% from 2021. (1) Their organization has found that these increases are primarily due to pets who don't make it back home after straying, as strays make up the majority of shelter intakes.
The University of Florida corroborates this evidence, citing that 40-65% of all animals who enter shelters are strays. (2) They also found that most shelters do not have a standing protocol or dedicated personnel working to return lost pets to their homes or reunite them with their owners.
Interestingly, a study from Human Animal Support Services found that 70% of lost animals reunited with their owners were found less than a mile from their homes. (3) This suggests that with the right identification and streamlined process for alerting an owner, a lost pet can be recovered quickly and is often fairly close to home.
We can lessen the number of these animals ending up in shelters by being proactive with pet identification and quick with owner contact and that’s important.
Saving Space in Shelters
According to the ASPCA, “approximately 6.3 million companion animals enter U.S. animal shelters nationwide every year.” (4) Unfortunately, the number of animals ultimately adopted falls significantly short of that overall number leaving many facilities overcrowded and leading some animals to an untimely end.
The power of an effective pet tag helps free up space in shelters by ensuring animals that have loving homes are able to stay in those spaces, requiring only the intake of animals who are truly without shelter and care.
It also allows more time for shelter animals to be rehabilitated and find their forever families. Less pets in shelters equals less urgency to remove them while expanding the availability of resources for those in need.
Pangel™ Encourages Pet Identification
Overall, proper pet identification is necessary for several important reasons. Here's a list of the top ways pet I.D. offers protection:
Reuniting Lost Pets: One of the primary benefits of pet identification is that it increases the chances of reuniting lost pets with their owners. If a pet goes missing, having proper identification can make it easier for someone who finds the pet to return them home.
Prevention of Theft: Pets can be stolen, and having identification can help prove ownership. I.D. tags help serve as proof that a pet belongs to a specific owner, which can deter theft and assist in legal matters if theft occurs.
Help During Disasters: The chaos and panic during a disaster can disorient both people and their pets. After a disaster, pets may be displaced from their homes, impacting their ability to find their way back. They might wander to unfamiliar areas, leading to further separation from their owners.
Legal Requirements: In many places, there are laws regarding pet identification, especially for dogs. Complying with these regulations can prevent fines and keep your pet legal and safe.
Travel Compliance: If you plan to travel with your pet, many destinations require pets to have identification. It helps ensure that your pet can be traced back to you in case they get lost during your travels.
Reassurance to Owners: Knowing that your pet has proper identification offers significant stress relief. It reduces worry about what might happen if your pet goes missing and assures you that you are taking the necessary steps to protect them.
Proper pet I.D. is a simple, but essential step in pet safety. At Pangel™, we want to take your pet's I.D. tag to another level, making it even easier to identify you as the owner and streamline reunification.
How Pangel™ Plans to Help
Pangel™ has always prided itself on offering an innovative solution for pet protection. We've decided to add another option for pet owners who seek to keep their pets safe at all times. We've developed a pet identification tag that connects directly to you as the owner. Our stylish tags contain a QR code that, when scanned, reveals your address and contact information to facilitate a safe pet return.
Many pet owners already enjoy the benefits of a Pangel pet safety app membership, but even owners without a Pangel membership can still make full use of the Pangel™ pet tag.
It's incredibly easy to purchase a tag directly from our pet safety app. The profile names and contact information recorded within the app are the only items needed to link the QR code on the tag.
It's a simple, user-friendly safeguard that ensures if your pet is lost, you're contacted quickly and easily.
