Series 3+ GPS + Health Dog Collar

I will forever recommend Fi collars. They only do GPS though and quite honestly, if your dogs are going through the effort to get out of a physical fence, they’re not going to care about a wireless fence. All tracking collars will have their pros and cons. Fi is not as quick to report a dog out of b

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

We

Fi’s claim to fame is battery life and size. Everything else is marketing fluff. The accuracy of the 3+ is good enough and it’ll get you within 15-20 feet of where the collar is on lost dog mode. It doesn’t provide up to the second location data because that’ll run the battery dry. It’s the best for

This happened to me too. 2 acres in the Rockies, very rural. No cell service, only WiFi with Starlink. I had to bring the fence in about 10’ where the collar dead zones were. I also put it on the charger and turn it off every night as instructed by customer service. This did the trick and my dog has
