One of my relatives asked for such a thing on the eighth of March, her dog sometimes crawls out over the fence and runs away to run around the area. Kind people have brought the dog two times already and the relative does not want to wait for the third. For the first time in my practice, someone from the family suggested a new accessory to me, and I hasten to share this useful information with you. Moreover, this has not happened before, Tractive is a software and hardware complex for GPS tracking of your pets.
There are two types of kits, each with a sensor, but the versions differ in the presence of a subscription to the service. In one case it is a year, in another case it is a month, you will have to pay for the use of five euros every thirty days. The sensor is connected to the program on a smartphone or tablet (Android or iOS), there you can see where your cat or dog is walking. The sensor lasts about five days without charging, which is not bad.
You can define a safe area if the dog runs out of it, a smartphone signal and notification will allow you to quickly start searching. Tracking is online, but you can only periodically glance at the display and see where the animal is. In my opinion, this thing is more suitable for dogs, they get used to a leash, but cats begin to wander around and try to take off any unnecessary things.
In Russia, such a thing costs about 9,900 rubles, a set with a subscription for a year will cost 15,000 rubles. Before the crisis, the price was half as much.
By the way, after registering in the program, you become a member of a certain social network Tractive, you can chat with other owners of the device – apparently, they are very fond of pets.
