The Tagg tracker easily snaps onto your pup’s existing collar, but it can’t be removed by paws with non-opposable thumbs. Got an active dog? No worries, the tracker can withstand running, digging, Frisbee-catching, rolling in mud and even swimming.
You can set up boundaries for your pet, like your backyard or your block. If your dog leaves that safe zone, you’ll get a text message or an alert via e-mail. You can then see their location on a map via the Tagg Website. There’s also an accompanying mobile app for Android and iOs so you can track their location on-the-go.
The service is getting a lot of buzz in the pet industry and especially from animal shelters. If you adopted your pet from a shelter, there’s a likely chance it was microchipped too. The microchip is an excellent way for identifying found pets at shelters, but many pet owners forget to register their pets’ chips so it is hard to identify them. The Tagg tracker can help pet owners find their pets before they end up in the shelters.
“I’ve been in the pet industry for more than 40 years, and Tagg – The Pet Tracker is the first product that got me excited about the possibilities for pet parents to really keep their pets safe,” said Mike Arms, President and CEO, Helen Woodward Animal Center.
The service ties into Verizon’s network so you should have solid coverage all over the country. The Tagg Master Kit will ship later this month and includes all hardware and one full year of service for $200. The iPhone and Android apps are free. That isn’t a cheap price, but when it comes to my pet’s well-being I’m willing to shell out a lot.
