Pet licensing, finally modernized.
The stamped metal tag is a cost center that reunites almost no one. RoadDog turns licensing into a connected service — one that gets lost pets home faster, lifts license compliance, and costs your department less to run.
The tag becomes the license
Instead of minting and mailing metal discs, your residents register a RoadDog Smart Tag that is the license — with online sign-up, automatic renewals, and rabies-expiry reminders built in.
When anyone scans that tag, the owner is reached in seconds — so a found pet goes home from the sidewalk instead of into your shelter.
What your city gets
Built around the numbers an animal-services budget actually turns on.
Fewer impounds, lower cost
Reuniting a pet in the field — before intake — cuts the biggest line item in animal services and lifts live-release rates.
Higher license revenue
Frictionless tag-as-license registration and auto-renewal recover the license fees most cities never collect.
Less staff labor
Self-service registration, automated renewals and reminders, and instant owner lookup replace paperwork and phone tag.
Data & reporting
Licensed-pet counts, vaccination compliance, reunification and intake trends — ready for budgets, council, and grants.
Public safety
Rabies-vaccination verification tied to the license, plus access-controlled flags for dangerous-dog and quarantine cases.
Resident privacy & PR
No phone number stamped on a collar. Residents get a private, modern service — and the city gets the credit for modernizing.
Emergency reunification
When a wildfire or storm scatters pets, a scannable registry reunites displaced animals fast — exactly when shelters are overwhelmed.
Works with what you have
Complements microchips and existing records, and travels with the animal across jurisdictions when residents move.
How a pilot works
We partner with your department
Agree on scope, pricing, and the outcomes you want to prove — typically intake reduction and license compliance.
Residents register
Owners activate a RoadDog tag as their license online — no counter visit, no metal to mail.
Scans reunite pets
Finders and officers scan the tag and reach the owner immediately, keeping animals out of the shelter.
You see the results
A reporting view tracks registrations, compliance, and reunification so the pilot's impact is measurable.
RoadDog turns pet licensing from a cost center into a connected service that reunites pets faster, collects more revenue, and costs less to run.
