Inspired by her Golden Retriever, in 2004 Sandy Hirsch was determined to find an engravable ID tag tough enough to withstand her
dog's active lifestyle and attractive enough to hang from her collar. She knew what she was looking for: a tag that could be engraved
with all the pertinent information, wouldn't fade, discolor, or fall off, that would also be glitzy and glamorous. After a long and fruitless
search, Hirsch took what she was looking for and decided to create a company devoted solely to producing doggie-durable yet fashion
friendly pet tags.
A collector of fine jewelry, Hirsch began by consulting a designer and a jeweler. She explored the properties of precious metals, the
strength of various bales and connectors, the staying power of various gems. After coming up with a prototype that addressed both
function and form, the tags were put to the ultimate test of durability: her dog, Jessie. Jessie proved that the tags can withstand even
the most active and rambunctious pooches. The end result became the first Wags & Tags line, BOWL ME OVER™, recently debuted at
New York's Pet Fashion Week. BOWL ME OVER™ dog tags are not only tough, sturdy tags, but also fine, luxurious jewelry. The tags'
popularity has also inspired a line of matching pendants for people, too!
About Wags & Tags: Wags & Tags was born because of Jessie, a gorgeous golden retriever. The owner Sandy Hirsch thought that a
beautiful dog shouldn't wear anything other than a magnificent ID tag that is also fine jewelry. A collector of fine jewelry, Sandy came
up with a prototype that addressed both form and function. But for the last piece in the puzzle, durability, they called in the real expert
— Jessie. They put her to work rigorously testing the tags. After three years of extensive swimming and racing through the woods,
Jessie proved that the tags could withstand all the fun of an active and rambunctious four-legged friend. To learn more about Wags &
