1 / 7PawView TN116-C87 Bone-Shaped QR Dog ID Tag
PawView TN116-C87 is a bone-shaped dog ID tag that uses a scannable QR code to share a pet profile and send a scan-location alert, according to the listing. It is a passive tag, not a live GPS tracker, so location information depends on someone scanning it.
At a glance
- A phone scan of the QR code is claimed to send the owner an alert with scan location information.
- The listing says setup is subscription-free, with pet details editable later and no batteries needed for scan alerts.
- The pet profile can include health and care records, with selected records shareable with family, sitters or a vet.
- A privacy control is claimed to let owners choose whether contact details, address or profile information is visible.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Scan-based alerts and a digital pet profile offer more information than a tag that only displays engraved details.
- The stated passive QR approach avoids a battery-powered tracker and does not require a finder to install an app, according to the listing.
- Profile editing and record-sharing features may suit households managing ongoing pet care information.
Cons
- It is not live GPS tracking. An alert depends on a finder scanning the QR code, so it cannot provide continuous location updates when nobody scans the tag.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing calls the tag personalised in its title but also states that it is not customisable. It describes the material as Zinc in specifications and Metal in the FAQ, and uses varying warranty wording including a one-year manufacturer warranty and an extended replacement warranty. Confirm how personalisation and warranty coverage apply to this selected tag. The location feature is scan-triggered rather than live tracking, and the listing's privacy and waterproof claims are not independently established here.
Who is it for?
A good fit for
- Dog owners wanting a lightweight QR ID tag with scan-triggered location alerts rather than continuous GPS.
- Owners who want an editable pet profile and optional health-record sharing without a required subscription, as stated in the listing.
Less suited to
- Anyone who needs continuous live location tracking or escape alerts without a person scanning the tag.
- Buyers who require confirmed custom engraving or a clearly specified replacement-warranty arrangement.
