Tractive Smart Dog GPS Tracker | Live Pet Tracker with Virtual Fence | Vital Signs Monitoring of Heart & Respiratory Rate | Bark Monitoring | Dog Collar Attachment (Brown)

Great value for the price.
Works very well, easy to set up and use. Our Pom/ Shitzu mix likes to run and will disappear from time to time. We live in a rural area and GPS works great to find her and tracker her down. App is easy to use and battery has a long life when in home mode. App will alert you when the battery is low. You can set up a Geo fence and the app alerts if the pet exits the safe zone. We tried tokens and the Find My app but it was a disaster. The Tractive gives us peace of mind and keeps her safe. The app has a great health and activity tracker as well.The device will also light up and emit a sound. It was funny as she learned to come home when we activated the sound on the device, so another plus! Even though you have to purchase an additional monthly monitoring plan it is well worth the cost to be able to know where she is.

Super accurate, great design, livesaver for my runaway!!
Great design – not bulky or heavy and fits on a martingale collar (no buckle) as well as reg collar or harness. Had it up and running within 5 min of downloading the app, super easy. Love the virtual fence feature which alerts you when your dog leaves your yard!! my hound is super high energy and needs a lot of outdoor exploring time, but also likes jumping over our fence, so now I get alerts when I need to run outside and chase him down the street. Has saved his life 2x in 2 weeks! (we live not far from a busy street). Battery life is great(6+ days i think) bc it turns off live tracking when it’s in the home zone which is smart. I just got back from tracking down my runaway dog and am so grateful to this device that I sat down right away to write this review!! No issues with GPS coverage, the live tracker has been totally accurate. I had a Fi collar in the past but I like this better, it’s easier , longer lasting battery and doesn’t need the special charge stand, all in all we are super happy.

1-YEAR, NON-REFUNDABLE SUB PURCHASE BEFORE TRACKING CAN BE ACTIVATED.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Unlike every other iPhone app that has in-app purchases, Tractive doesn’t offer a free trial period. Silly me. I’m so comfortable purchasing from Apple’s App Store, I never noticed there’s no free trial. In order to connect the app, you give them a credit card #. Fine. Normal. But there’s no trial period. Tractive charged $156.00 on day one. When the device turned out to be defective (and the only way to know was to activate the so-called GPS) they’re like “HAHA, GOTCHA!!!’ I didn’t notice the charge on my credit card until a couple of months after I had purchased AND returned AND reported it was utterly useless as a tracker. I disputed the charge. They had the gall to dispute my dispute by saying my credit card was good. They sound like a 5-year-old justifying stealing candy because it was within reach at the checkout lane. They sent the bank a completely irrelevant screenshot of someone’s 5-star review (not on Amazon) of a $49 cat collar, saying it was an example of a product description “presented to the cardholder before they completed the transaction. Dig a little and it turns out to be a celebrity endorsement. Had nothing to do with a 12-month subscription that must be paid before the device can be activated. Which is exactly how the App Store works, but the sub can be canceled during a trial period. And of course Amazon has a 30-day return period, even if you don’t like the color. But in my case it didn’t perform as claimed. Even worse: I went to purchase a Whistle Tracker, which I had several years ago. Great product, great phone service, and month-to-month cellular. Plus their site tracked the dog 24 hours showing the level of activity. (Came in handy when my neighbor accused my dog of barking for hours under his bedroom window, and the Whistle showed she was inside asleep the whole time.) Well, don’t buy that either because Tractive has acquired the company. They’ve no doubt turned it into the same garbage as Tractive.UPDATE: TRACKER SHOWING PET IS IN HOME ZONE. IN ANOTHER NEIGHBORHOOD. SHE IS RIGHT HERE WITH ME. This gadget is worse than useless. I am returning, and purchasing a different brand.I am infuriated. They make a product for protecting pets, but this company doesn’t seem to care about pets. My dog was rescued from horrific conditions. I adopted her and have been working hard to keep her safe, trained, well-fed, and treated like a family member. She’s my companion and protector and I AM HERS! A week ago she figured out how to escape the gate and went on quite an excursion through the neighborhood. I had an Apple AirTag on her collar, from my deceased 16-year-old dog which was enough. But AirTags don’t show in the FindMy app unless it’s not moving. AirTags also need to ping off other iPhones. This is a young, strong, very active dog. After chasing her for an hour in 90º heat, I got a call from someone whom she had approached. (Putting one’s phone number on the collar in big numbers is the best when you have a pet who never met a stranger. I went straight to Amazon and ordered this tracker. It arrived in about a week. I set it up yesterday. Today, she escaped again. I normally don’t review until I have a lot of experience with a purchase. I live on a half acre. Apparently that’s too small to create a geofence, Maybe there’s a way to alter it. But I was out looking for her while the app was telling me she’s safe at home. I spotted her in my next door neighbor’s heavily wooded yard. Then the next yard and the next. The homeowner was just getting home and got out of the car to pick up her mail. I yelled. She spotted my dog and spoke in a friendly way, causing the dog to come to her. (Luckily she likes both dogs and humans.) However, this is not what I signed up for. There is no way except email to contact this company. Fine for most electronic gadgets, but unacceptable to find a lost pet who is in danger of getting hit by a car. There is no way to draw a geofence that is accurate and useful. Tractive is well-aware their devices are not reliable. They make their money scamming people. I disputed the charge, since I had returned the item. They disputed my dispute. I’ve disputed their nonsensical dispute. Update to follow. Also filing a complaint with the App Store.

When our dog ran off during a walk, it was one of those moments that makes your heart stop. She had an Apple AirTag on her collar, but once she darted into the thick brush, the AirTag was basically useless without a nearby phone to ping off. That experience made it clear we needed something with real GPS tracking.Enter the Tractive Smart GPS Tracker, and honestly, it’s been a game changer. The device gives you live tracking that’s accurate down to a few metres, even in wooded areas. You can follow your dog’s movements in real time through the app, and it updates constantly without the lag we had with other devices.The virtual fence feature is another standout. You can set a safe zone around your home or favourite walking area, and the moment your dog crosses that invisible boundary, you get an alert. It’s quick, reliable, and gives huge peace of mind.Beyond tracking, the health and activity reports are surprisingly useful. It logs your dog’s daily movement, rest, and overall activity level, almost like a fitness tracker for pets. It’s a nice bonus to see patterns that help you understand their habits better.The device itself is lightweight, waterproof, and easy to attach to a collar. Battery life is solid, and the subscription plan for GPS service feels worth every cent for the reliability it brings.After trying both an AirTag and the Tractive, I can say there’s no comparison. The Tractive Smart GPS Tracker is designed for pets, and it shows in every feature. I 100% recommend it for anyone with a dog who loves to explore—or one that’s just a little too fast when they see a squirrel.

Très bon outil si votre chien est fugueur. L’application est bien faite. Abonnement à 5€ par mois pour 2 ans. Très léger. Mon Border le supporte sans problème. La batterie tient depuis 1 semaine et est encore à 50%.Outil imbattable à ce prix.

Jag köpte Tractives nya gps och tycker den är helt fantastisk! Skulle min hund springa bort så vet jag precis vart han är, och jag älskar att titta tillbaka på våra promenader med historiken i appen. Jag kan också se hur mycket han sover och hur mycket han skäller när han är ensam hemma. Jag behöver ladda den ungefär en gång i veckan vilket går väldigt fort. Kan inget annat än att rekommendera!
