Is anyone facing this?

I have had an AirTag on my dog's collar from the day AirTags launched. Since then, I have updated my iPhone 12p to iOS15 and then Beta 2 and now back to 14.7 Beta and this morning to Beta 5.

14.7 now thinks the AirTag is not mine and it is 'following' me. I dont find the AirTag under 'Items' and there is no way for me to 'claim' this as mine either. When I tap 'Add new item' the phone doesn't seem to be able to scan this AirTag.

I am about to submit a bug report through the feedback app. But I wanted to check if others have faced a similar issue and if they have a solution.

Although, I aint complaining that my 'dog' is following me. :)
