Premium dog accessory brand Oscar & Hooch, which manufactures dog collars and leads, has launched a pilot scheme to help its customers locate missing dogs.
Oscar & Hooch, a family business created by Paul and Elaine Steckler, has teamed up with MyTAG to provide a free branded ‘Lost & Found’ tag with each direct order from its signature dog collar range.
Despite their distinctive looks, these tags are much more than a stylish accessory. Using QR Code and NFC technology, they can actually help find missing dogs quickly and efficiently.
What’s more, Oscar & Hooch customers will receive 12 months free cover with MyTAG, the online service which links with the tag to store five emergency contacts, while pinpointing the location of a missing dog.
“When our pets go missing, it can cause a huge amount of stress and worry. That’s why we’ve teamed up with MyTAG. Their system can help find missing dogs in hours, rather than days,” explains sales director, Elaine Steckler.
“Customers simply notify MyTAG in the event of their dog going missing, which triggers an email alert to be sent to all vets, wardens and rescue centres within a 25 mile radius. Should someone find their missing dog, MyTAG will contact the customer instantly by text or email. A GPS map is also provided, which pinpoints the exact location of their four-legged friend.”
Free replacement ‘Lost & Found’ tags are also available to Oscar & Hooch customers, along with the option to upgrade to lifetime cover with MyTAG for £19.99.
Elaine adds: “We’re confident that our customers will find these branded ‘Lost & Found’ tags of great value, so we can’t wait to hear their feedback. We have limited stock during this pilot scheme, so those wanting to place orders should get in touch quickly.”.
All of Oscar & Hooch’s products are manufactured within the UK. Both their dog collars and leads are presented as signature ranges, using a luxury soft suedette in 12 distinctive colours.
Finished with stylish nickel plated hardware, the entire range of collars and leads are also machine washable.
