Description
The medium pet tag silencer is a custom fit for our medium stainless steel dog id tag. The silencer fits easily over the edge of a tag. The silencer has a small opening along the folded edge where the loop of the tag can fit securely through. The plastic is clear and durable and does not hide the graphic in the center of our tags. These silencers also have an added benefit of glowing in the dark which makes them quite handy at night while you are out walking your dog.
The medium pet tag silencer also helps protect the tag against abrasion. This occurs when multiple tags rub together around your dog’s neck. It is this abrasion which wears most of the tags on the market today down to nothing. Your tag is robbed of its most important aspect which is the tag’s engraving. Our tags are engraved very deeply and the stainless steel we use is among the hardest of stainless alloys. Abrasive wear is not a threat to our tags but it is nice to have the added protection of a silencer.
If the noise of a tag clinging against a food dish or against other tags drives you crazy, than you will most definitely appreciate having one of these silencers. The silencer can be removed and cleaned and easily put back on again. Silencers are so inexpensive that you might want to have several on hand should they become worn or thin.
We do not make these medium pet tag silencers. Hillman, a company in Ohio and Arizona, came up with the idea. These silencers are rather generic in that they will fit various 1 1/8″ tags on the market. The Hillman company also makes another size silencer which fits our small stainless steel tags. We sell them here on our site. They don’t however and unfortunately, make a large version which will fit our largest 1 1/2″ tags which we very much regret!

These do really silence the tags, which is very nice, fit fine, not sure how long they will last. They do not glow in the dark as it states on the package, but I still like them

Tag silencer. I love this product! It makes my Wheaten’s tag protected and looks good, too! I had ordered the tag silencer for the medium tag, when I ordered the medium tag, but the product I received indicates it’s for the “large circle I.D. tag”. Regardless, it works very well. I may order a couple more for the rabies and city licence tag, as well.

Effective Silencer. The silencer perfectly fits my dog’s medium size id tag. It was easy to hook on, does not detract too much from the gorgeous id tag, and in a nutshell, it does the job. No loud clanking which would drive my dog crazy as much as it would for me I’m sure. I haven’t seen it “glow in the dark”, which I was really hoping for on our night walks. However my dog chooses to be inside for a majority of the day, so my guess is that it doesn’t soak up enough sun. We’ll see what happens in the summertime when we are outside more often. I’m happy with my purchase.

Worked as described We chose to take it off because the tag looked nicer without it but this served its intended purpose

fit the HomeAgain tag This fit the home again tag very nicely. However there was no way it would fit the new large stainless steel tag I had ordered.

Medium ID Tag Very speedy delivery of the medium ID tag I ordered for my dog, Mortis. He has been through many tags where the back information has worn off. All the reviews have given this tag a major thumbs up and guarantee their product. That’s 5 star in my book. Its a beautiful piece!

Fit and finish are great The silencer fit the medium snowflake id tag like it was suppose to and stays in place keeping the id tag quite. Good product worth the money.

Silencer Works great Also helps protect engraving when without silencer rubs against other tags

Quieter tags Bought the silencer for the dog tag but should’ve ordered a small one for his rabies tag. Next shipment.

Wow These pop right on and are clear plastic. They fit snug around the edge and there is a slit at the top to fit the neck of the ID tag through. It was very easy to put on. I thought the glow aspect was a sort of fun novelty and wouldn’t last but they actually glow a lot longer than I expected.

No more clinking! I ordered two of these for the large stainless round ID tags. They look like clear plastic, fit snugly around the edges of the tags, but the tag information is still visible and easy to read. Time will tell how they hold up to freezing and water, etc, but for $1 I might be tempted to order as many replacements as necessary just for the glow-in-the-dark capability and the fact that the tags don’t clank on our WALKIES!
