Tractive GPS Dog Tracker | 2025 Edition | Market leader | Real-time location tracking | Escape Alerts | Activity Monitoring | Health Alerts | Bark Monitoring (Brown)GreenCircle Certified: Certified Energy Savings

I recently purchased the Tractive GPS Dog Tracker for my dog, and I couldn’t be happier with it. The real-time tracking feature is accurate and gives me peace of mind knowing I can always see where my dog is, even when he’s off-leash. One of my favorite features is the virtual fence, which allows me to set up a designated safe area. If my dog ever leaves this zone, I get an instant notification, ensuring I can act quickly to bring him back.The battery life is another standout feature. Depending on usage, it can last up to seven days, which is perfect for minimizing the hassle of frequent recharging. The tracker is lightweight, durable, and waterproof, so I don’t have to worry about it during outdoor adventures or in bad weather.Overall, the Tractive GPS Dog Tracker has exceeded my expectations with its reliability, ease of use, and thoughtful features. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a dependable way to keep their pet safe and secure.

We bought Tractive (£40 ish for Hardware and £6 per month Basic Subscription) to keep track of our Female Puppy/Dog who will be having her first Season over next few months, and also as we are taking off lead for Recall Training. Very happy with the results so far. The Unit goes into Battery Saving mode (updates every 5 mins) when at home but it lasts pretty good...about 10% per day.During Walk, press the button on App and it logs the route in real time....just got to remember to END the Walk otherwise it affects the Stats I guess.The safe zone minimum is a little larger than we anticipated so technically the Dog could escape and we wouldn't know for over 5 mins if it stayed with the large safe Zone around the House Area ie roads. A slight downside, but really the Unit was purchased for walk tracking and off lead operations so not really too worried.The Wellness Tracking is at early stages but looks interesting. Not sure about Sleep tracking when Collar is removed on a night.The Units Base Plate fits onto collar okay with a lot of stretching of rubber... a back up plate would've been good in case the rubber snaps. The Unit then clips onto the Plate with four stretchy rubber clips. Charging up on collar so not needed to remove once in place.Very happy so far.

Literally just put this on my dog today and he ran off chasing a deer while we were playing frisbee. I'd never used the app before but it was very intuitive. The real-time function is excellent and it was reassuring to be able to see where my dog was and predict where he was headed. I managed to track him down within 10 minutes. Perfect.The collar attachment is secure for now, but as it is made from silicone I do wonder if it will last. I feel this should really be attached to the collar via a metal ring or something less flexible. I bought the black one, so it would be less obvious, and he doesn't seem bothered by it (he's a 17.5kg border collie).Overall, I'm very pleased as it took two hours of searching through the woods in the dark to find him last week. It gives me some reassurance to know I'll be able to track him down quickly even his prey drive gets the better of him.

Got this after searching for what seemed forever for a tracker - got this one based on market share. First impressions are that it's light and clips onto the harness well and doesn't appear it will come off easily. Signed up for a 2 year subscription as it worked out relatively cheap. The app is good and informative and I like that you can use different styles of map. The power save function at home is great, and keeps the battery at a good level. Have had it for around 5 months and I've noticed that the "waking up" once leaving the safe zone at home takes some time. I often get a push notification that the dog has left the safe zone around 30 minutes after she has. Live tracking works well, but maybe 20% of the time it takes forever to connect and sometimes times out. Almost like it's stuck in sleep mode, which would also explain the delayed push notifications. But when online it works really well, we track walks accurately. This is my first tracker so cannot compare to others, but this one seems to work well.

Upgraded from older unit. battery life improved, signal seems stronger, love the usb-c charging (old one had proprietary charger plug that held on with magnets)Have used a few tracking systems and I find tractive better than most and the actual units more reliable (never had to replace one due to failure - had 2 pitpat units changed under warranty - which took a while to get to change them - before giving up on them)

Really disappointed with this tracker. I’ve kept it off live mode to save battery, but it still dies in a week or less, nowhere near the 14 days the seller promised. The GPS signal is unreliable and often drops out completely. It last updated 3 hours ago, which is pretty useless when you’re relying on it for your pet’s safety. Overall, not something I’d trust or recommend.
