When PetsWeekly was asked to take a first look at a new GPS pet tracker that Qualcomm was developing, our ears perked up – a new GPS pet tracker? Could it really be possible someone finally created a product that has all the features we want to see in a tracking device? They didn’t have to ask us twice – we were more than a little anxious to take a close look at this device.
We weren’t disappointed. Like everything else they create, this pet tracking device sets the standard for pet location services, and offers a wide array of additional services to boot.

Designer Look, Amazing Battery
The sleek, stylish design and lightweight collar is unique for a number of reasons. The first is its extraordinary battery life – up to 30 days on a single charge. This is a collar clearly designed for daily use and that’s important when it comes to your pets. The last thing you want to worry about if your pet escapes the yard is how long the battery of your GPS tracker will last. But even when it does start to wear down (about 30 days from the time to charge it), you’ll receive text messages that tell you its time to charge it. Purchasing multiple collars will enable you to switch out a charged unit and make sure your pet is protected at all times.
Lightweight Design for Any Size Pet
Designed for pets over 10 lbs, this device can be used on nearly every dog and cat. Measuring only 4 3/8” long, 1-3/8” wide, and only ¾” tall, it is simple to attach to any sized pet collar making it the perfect choice for both dogs and cats. Because the tracker is designed to be worn at all times, it’s waterproofed, so there is no worry that your pet will negate the collars performance by taking a quick swim in a nearby lake or river.
Single Base Unit, Multiple Collars
If you have more than one animal, you’re going to love this device. It’s really designed for multi-pet households and doesn’t require multiple base units. That means, you can charge multiple pet collars with only one charger.
Geo Fences and Boundaries
The Tagg pet tracking system uses advanced GPS tracking technology to allow you to see where your dog is and be notified if he or she wanders off or leaves a designated area. The areas you create are called “Geo-fences” and they are simple to set up from your phone or computer. Other convenient factors have been built into this design including a trip button which allows you to head to the vet’s or take a walk without receiving alert messages. Heading out of town? No problem – alter the geofence to keep track of your pet on the road, at the dog park, or while traveling.

Collar attachment
If you’re like us and you love your pet’s collar, you don’t need to worry about changing it out. The Tagg tracker attaches securely to any collar with a two-piece snap. While it doesn’t firmly attach to beaded or jeweled collars as well, it will dress up even the plainest nylon, cotton or leather collar. If your dog has multiple collars, they do recommend one set-up per collar.
