Series 3+ GPS + Health Dog Collar

Even better, get a Fi collar. AirTags require the dog to be near someone with an iPhone, Fi is satellite real time tracking. It’s obviously more expensive but if your girl is a problem runner it sounds like you need it.

5 day battery life and its a clip on device. Collars, lights, tags, and other accessories get snagged all the time on dogs. Also, you cant track your dog without your cellphone having cellular service. So if you become separated from your dog in a TSAT only area, you cant track them. Its also an add

We returned it for those reasons. Can’t use Fi app without cell service, thus can’t find dog if no cell service. We tried it on a hike through light/moderate tree cover and it did not work. Other gps devices (a Fitbit with standalone gps and also iPhone using satellite messaging) did work in the loc

Air tags don't make a good substitute for a proper GPS collar because they rely on phones being around them to function. If you're in an area that doesn't have a lot of phones, then you won't find your dog. And even if you are in an area with a lot of iPhones around, that doesn't guarantee you will

Idk. I like my collar so far, I live in an area with good service on both carriers that they offer and I use it to get an idea of the direction my dog went (if he were to get out). Without it, I'd have no idea of direction or distance. I understand there are other options out there but I like Fi's c

Looks awesome! I could see it being useful for my runner. We have two on fi collars, and one runs off often. We live in an area with poor cell service. Fi has never alerted us to her running off, and it’s at least twice a week. She does have great recall though, and doesn’t go further than our neigh

See my post on 3+ vs 3 battery lifehttps://www.reddit.com/r/FiDogCollar/s/W3jrCtZ04A Also, I think Bluetooth to phone or base is the most efficient.

To add to this, GPS is unidirectional. The satellite will tell the collar where it is, but the collar needs to be able to tell you where it is, which is where the LTE part comes in play, and that means someone is paying the LTE company. We have Fi, which I believe uses AT&T. While this is far better

It’s the way the collar works for reliability. The F1 collar specifically, if you’re not connected to the homebase, the collar on the dog does not read the same information. For example, mapping and tracking routes. Most people with these collars are very dedicated to tracking, even when they are wa

My collar is only a few months old and drains it about 10 to 15% a day. I complained enough with them enough they’re sending me a 2nd base for free. They will not replace my collar, and keep saying that it is a connectivity issue. Which is ridiculous because my dog is within 100 feet of her base 90%
