A Traveler's Must-Have: Tractive GPS Dog Collars Provide Unbeatable Peace of Mind As the owner of two adventurous dogs and a frequent traveler across the U.S. East Coast, reliability is non-negotiable when it comes to pet safety. I've been using Tractive GPS collars—one purchased three years ago and the other two years ago—and they have proven to be the single most important tool for ensuring my dogs' safety, whether we are home or on the road. The core function of these devices is location, and Tractive delivers consistently. The peace of mind knowing that if the dogs somehow slip out of the car during a rest stop or wander from an unfamiliar vacation rental, I can locate them instantly, is invaluable. Even when we're deep in wooded areas where my phone signal struggles, the Tractive tracking signal has always come through, offering reliable real-time updates. Dependability and Durability The longevity of these devices speaks volumes about their quality. Both units are over two years old and still perform flawlessly. The battery life is strong, holding a charge well enough that managing two collars is never a burden. Equally impressive is the waterproofing. My dogs love the water, and we spend plenty of time near the ocean and in pools. The Tractive devices handle salt water, fresh water, and splashes without a single issue, proving they are truly adventure-proof (IP68 rated). I never have to worry about removing them before a swim. The App: A Crucial Companion The accompanying Tractive app is intuitive and robust. It's especially useful when traveling, but provides daily value even when we are home. The ability to quickly check the map, set up Virtual Fences for new locations, and monitor activity is seamless. This feature has also been fantastic for verifying that our pets are being well-cared for by a sitter while we're away. A quick glance at the app confirms they are active and secure within their safe zone. In summary, Tractive GPS collars are an essential investment for any pet owner, especially those who travel frequently or have active, adventurous dogs. The combination of reliable signal, excellent battery life, true waterproofing, and a user-friendly app makes this the best long-term safety solution on the market.

Does a great job overall at tracking my hounds. I will say that I recently found out that it doesn't work when my hound is tunneling underground, but that's to be expected in a 10+ foot long tunnel, and is only a problem if you have a tunneling dog 🙄. Buildings and heavy tree cover in the summer can cause issues with connectivity, but that's also understandable when you live in the woods. I live in the middle of nowhere with very little to no cell reception, yet I can still track my dogs all over our property (35 acres), at our cabin on the lake, and at my parents farm in Northern Minnesota (also in the middle of nowhere). We do a lot of ice fishing and we're able to track them easily on and around the frozen lake. Sometimes if it's really cold and we're outside for a while, the extreme temp will cause the tracker to glitch, but I'm talking below -10°F. Once, my dog's collar fell off of her while she was wrestling with her brother in a blizzard on the lake, and I was able to find it (with the tracker on it) the next morning, even though the battery had died overnight. Since it hadn't moved after it fell off, its last location was saved and I was able to easily retrieve it using the app. I had to dig in the snow for it a little bit, but the location was accurate and I was able to find it relatively quickly. One of my dogs likes to pull the other by the collar and frequent bites the tracker, but it keeps working, which I find very impressive. We live off a busy highway, the driveway is about 1/4 mile long, and the "home" zone and "no go" zones with their alerts have helped us keep the dogs off the road and helps keep them alive. They're really good at knowing not to go that direction, but hound's noses tend to lead them astray, especially if there's roadkill involved. It definitely gives me peace of mind knowing that I'll be alerted almost immediately if they've wandered too far in that direction. I've been using the old version of the tracker for a little over a year, and now I've had this version for about a month and the battery life on this version is awesome. It's been lasting several days at a time, whereas we were having to charge the old version almost every day. The new version is larger than the old one, but doesn't seem to bother the dogs at all.

Tractive has a great pet tracker for our much loved Chesapeake Bay Retriever. It fits well on his collar, is accurate, waterproof and is great value for the money. The app is very easy to use to create our pet's profile, establish multiple safe zones (residences) and to provide us with our pet's activity levels compared with similar breeds who wear a Tractive device. We charge it every two weeks. It's also been helpful for us to track where our pet is while traveling by vehicle.

Love the Safety on this ..Nothing will work until the buttons on the remote are pushed !! I do like the correcting System,we have had this for 6 months now .I don’t believe in leaving a review when you just review something ! Really,how can you ? Ok ,I got the 2 dog collar system … They recommend Three Different Stages for training ..only if you need them ..The first stage .. You have different beep variations as they recommend to start as a warning when your pet does something wrong, you can adjust the different levels on each setting as how strong you need it for your pet to respond Then if your pet doesn’t listen to the beeping ,they recommend,the next step be the vibrations..with also different levels ,but doesn’t hurt them … The Third is the Shock ,,they also send rubber caps to cover the metal probes,so it doesn’t hurt them as much ,but I like you don’t have to shock them.if choose not to use these setting !! All these choices are made only by the master ,none are automatically gonna to do anything to your pet ,until a human presses a button on the remote control !! Plus I’m a little hard at seeing ,and I can clearly see and know what I’m doing with this remote ,that’s A Winner for me. Now ,it’s getting to the point where all I have to do is show them the remote ,and they listen !! Also I have had to get on Amazon ,and order a replacement remote that disappeared and the instructions is with the ordering details on here ,so no need for waiting on long phone calls ,for customer service ..I really like this company has replacements for all the devices needs ,and I don’t have to,order the whole package again ,just because I lost the charger … I still recommend the system ,and hope the company would read about what we ask for the upgrade the collar as our dogs don’t need to wear two collars,it’s just ;;to much weight on their neck We had to replace our collar ,because our puppy outgrew the original,only because our fault ,as my husband cut it short,so don’t do what we did .Though I don’t like this band though ,we are always having to tighten it up ,it doesn’t have a clip w/ holes to keep it in place in the size you want ,nor does it have a leash clip Qhich means your puppy or dog has to have 2 collars at the same time !! I don’t like that at all !! So just a quick recap. Though I do like the correcting System,it works very well,You have different beeps ,first stage then vibrations the second ,the third is shock ,of course is only by your choice All these choices are made only by the master ,none are automatic ,I can see it well ,,that’s what I like most my Fur baby is safe !! I recommend the system .I left one star off because of always having to tighten up the collar and that it has no clip for a leash .This should be made for dogs so they don’t have to wear multiple collars. So I’m hoping the company hears our request and upgrades the collar for our Lovable Fur Family soon and make this a Five ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Training Device !! I will update my review if anything changes.Have a Good Day with all Dogs !!

Couldn’t recommend this enough!!! We’ve rescued two pointer puppies who are WILD, and the Tractive XL Smart Dog GPS Tracker makes sure we know where our babies are. You can set a virtual fence and receive notifications to your phone when they exit and enter the “safe zone”. Both dogs are tracked on the same app home face. The app allows you to light up their tracker or make a sound for easy find. Tracker is secure on their collar. Also allows for live GPS tracking, tracking of activity levels, heart rate, respiratory rate, and sleep habits. Battery lasts over 2 weeks with continuous use. A little pricey, but worth it for how accurate and user friendly it is!

My dog has random spurts of running off randomly. This thing is worth every penny! You do have to buy a subscription, and it doesn’t give the option to make monthly payments which drives me crazy. You have to pay a full year in advance. But I would do it 100 times over because when my dog ran off, it took me STRAIGHT to him! No more sleepless nights wondering where he is or if he has gotten picked up or will come home. He ran off and I got him home in less than 5 minutes. It’s super easy to set up, the app works well. It fits nicely on my 70lb dogs collar. It’s 98% accurate. It lags a little. When my dog went outside of the perimeter, it didn’t notify me until he was across the street which was kind of a bummer. But overall, would 10000% buy again and again.

So far so good. I love the tracking ability of the GPS. Recently left the country on a trip and my son took care of my dogs. I could check at any time to see exactly where they were, and he had the same abilities. The batteries last much longer than we expected. The only downside is the monthly payments are pretty expensive. Make sure you check them before you make this purchase.

I live in a rural, wooded area on a 6 acre ranch and my dog, Kaia, occasionally takes off after deer or other "varmits." It has greatly concerned me as it isn't necessarily safe for her to wend her way home (mountain lions) after a morning out. The cost of fixing that fear deterred me until this last time when I bought the Tractive. What a relief! It not only works just as advertised, but is intuitive, the batteries do what they're supposed to, the site is easy to navigate, and its operation is terrific. Wish I had taken the plunge years ago.
