SAVE $25.99: Keep tabs on your pup with the Whistle Go Dog Health and Location tracker, on sale for $103.96 as of Sept. 16.
Do you consider yourself a crazy dog parent? If your dog has boots, any kind of clothing, or if you're just plain old protective of them, then you might be. But hey, being a crazy dog parent is a good thing — it means your pooch is getting all the love and attention they deserve.
If you're ready to take your dog parenting to the next level, a doggy GPS device is a must. It's basically a Fitbit or Apple Watch for your dog, and will give you some peace of mind about their location. As of Sept. 16, you can grab the Whistle Go Explore for $25.99 off — just $103.96.
More of a cat person? Don't worry, this compact tracker can work for cats, too.
Named the best overall in our Best Dog GPS Trackers roundup, the Whistle Go Explore is packed full of features. This compact tracker has a super long 20-day battery life, a built-in night light, and can monitor your pet's location and activity, with updates sent straight to your phone. The Whistle Go Explore doesn't come with a dedicated collar, but it fits onto any collar (or harness) up to one inch wide, so you can use it with the pet accessories you already have.
While it requires an $8.25 monthly membership to use all the GPS tracking (and some of the health features), this fee will give you much-needed reassurance when it comes to your pet's location. With the membership, the Whistle Go Explore connects to the AT&T 4G LTE network, which allows you to see where your pet is — with updates on location every 15 seconds. There's also an option to set designated safe spaces and get notifications to your phone when your pet leaves and returns to those spaces. For dogs who are escape artists or cats who tend to wander outdoors alone, knowing where they are is a must, and Whistle Go gives you that knowledge.
The Whistle Go is also a great way to get the full picture of your pet's health. You'll be able to track activity levels, calories burned, distance walked, and keep an eye on behaviors like licking, scratching, and sleeping. With a paid membership, you'll also have access to the ask-a-vet feature, where you'll be able to live chat, email, or hop on a phone call with a vet to ask any pressing questions or get health recommendations for your pup.
Scoop up the Whistle Go Explore while it's only $103.96 at Amazon. It's the lowest price we've seen on this tracker since February, so don't sleep on this rare deal.
