The Dog Tag is a small metal name tag from a pet's collar. It is a memento of the dogs that shared homes in Kentucky before the outbreak.

Each tag is stamped with a pet's name, or sometimes with no name at all. Names range from Buddy and Daisy to Lord Puddington and Mr Waffles. That makes every tag a tiny, personal story.

The tag fits on a key ring or inside a wallet. It turns up in doghouses, closets and other corners of family homes.

Using


The tag is a keepsake to carry or display. Hanging it on a key ring keeps it safe without taking bag space. It can also ride inside a wallet.

A survivor who lost a dog might keep a tag in memory of it. A collector can gather tags with different names as a quiet record of the town's lost pets. The metal tag is light, so carrying several costs nothing worth noticing.

This tag is the pet kind. The military Dog Tags worn around the neck are a different item.

Variations


The Dog Tag comes in 2 versions with the same stats. Only the look changes.

Locations


Doghouses are the best bet, holding a tag in about one case in fifteen. Closets come next. Attics, garages, halls and living rooms turn them up only rarely. Large survivor caches, kitchen counters and storage units hold one now and then.

Notes


  • A Key Ring is a handy home for a dog tag.
  • A doghouse in a yard is worth checking for pet items.
  • Tags with silly names make light-hearted gifts on a server.
  • Tags spawn with many different pet names, or with none.
