Review on 🐾 Advanced Pet Monitoring, Tracking and Locating System for Dogs and Cats weighing 5 lb or more by Eureka Technology by Kevin Singh

Revainrating 5 out of 5

My part of security is having my dog, being a dog!

I love Marco Polo! The best buy! i live in the country 5 acres of home and outbuildings surrounded by hundreds of acres of corn, rows of trees and soybean fields. My only satellite internet option is useless when it comes to tracking devices. I've tried a lot! Marco Polo works best. I'm willing to pay hundreds to keep my dogs safe. But the Marco Polo is cheap (shhh, don't tell the company!) and easy to use. There is a small learning curve. Basically find out what's in the cavity that can reflect radio waves. Move forward a few meters and you'll get the right direction. Also, distance % takes practice to know how far it actually is. Mine runs 24/7 to signal when it's wandered too far (which has a few settings that need personalizing too far). When the monitor alarm goes off, I attached a dog whistle to the tracker's cord. I whistled in his direction several times. Turn on chase mode to make sure he walks my way and comes home to eat the treat. Never scold! He is a terrier with a strong prey drive. It may take a few minutes, maybe 10 minutes, but with Marco Polo I can keep track of his direction and distance. I rarely had to leave because of him. Only once did I have to take a 4 wheeler to pick it up. He was on a deer's tail. wouldn't stop. We were a good mile from home. Marco Polo had me on his cock. This day alone was worth 100 Marco Polo! Luckily I only needed one! The battery performance is amazing! I charge the receiver on the collar once a month. The tracker is connected, mostly in the kitchen. I take it outside most days. He has been known to be outside all weekend without using the battery. It has a battery indicator which I stopped looking at. No need, it's always ready to use. I've had Marco Polo for a year. My dog loves to ride in everything. He is very picky about collars. The Marco Polo holster has proven to be very durable, but I only recently replaced it. You can order it separately on the site for $19 I believe. My dog's receiver collar got very wet, but it was never actually submerged in water. He loves to walk on water and wet grass. But he is not interested in swimming. I hope I was helpful. I was at a loss trying to control my dog and keep it in check. I wanted him to have at least some freedom, and I didn't have to worry. Marco Polo gave it to me! I recommend it 100%!
