Printing kennel cards is a popular feature in Shelter Pro. To supplement kennel cards, Shelter Pro can also print “Pet Detect” collars. The collars printed by Shelter Pro are similar to the sample here, but the information included will include easy identifiers typically associated with Shelter Pro, such as Case IDs and Kennel assignments, plus pet name and other pet profile information. These collars have been widely used in the pet boarding industry for many years as a primary form of animal identification for guests. Additionally the labels have been used as ‘tags’ for the personal property items for the pet.

Pet Detect labels are produced by a special printer. The device is relatively small in size, it’s about one-half the size of a shoe box. The printer requires special label media to produce the collars. The media comes in rolls that are loaded into the printer (similar to how you would load paper into a typical computer printer).
