The product is outstanding! I can monitor my dog at all times (if he gets out when kids leave a door opened or the lawn guys forgetting to shut the gate! Also, I can tell when he is not getting enough activity hourly /daily which pushes me and my family to get outside with him and run around more!!! The customer service is amazing and when a part broke they were so quick to help and send out another one for us. (the part broke only because a huge raccoon got in a fight with our big Wiemaraner and the attachment broke off. I will say the main GPS was found the next day in the bushes after a huge rain storm and it still works!! This was three weeks ago, seriously) So yes this product is amazing and worth every penny! It makes me at ease when i am away and get an alert hes outside our perimeter and my neighbors know to go outside when i call and say help hes by your house i have him on Whistle GPS!!!

I just got into the Whistle Explorer, and I do love it. But in all honesty the device needs a "30 second" option. I realize that would be a draw on the battery, but especially when the dog has escaped it would be be much more helpful if the owner could count on 30 second updates. But it would be nice for the family trip option too. After years of using other fitness apps that really show my path (running or walking), the equivalent view Whistle shows has us walking/running through many yards and over houses. So I love it, I just wish I could opt into 30-second updates.

No customer service

Overall the app is good, but isn’t always reliable. Do your research in regards to AT&T network. Apparently my area has a low signal and lots of trees effect the reliability of the device. But overall it’s still a good device and I would recommend it.

This product is not in real time as stated in the description. Very slow tracking.

I would have liked to know the difference of the products. Also wanted to know if the tracking shows “breadcrumbs” of where the dog had gone in the past.

I have been using Whistle for the past few years for my three active dogs. I always know exactly where my dogs are and get alerts when they leave their safe zones (you can set up more than one). I have had overwhelmingly positive experiences with Whistle support - they have replaced several devices for me, and have given me discount codes to replace damaged devices (for example, my dog slipped her collar and chewed her Whistle). I do note that I've had some trouble with the Whistle Go and Whistle Go Explore getting dirt and debris in the charging ports. Although the battery life is better in the Whistle Go, I miss the charging setup of the Whistle 3.

Took a while to get to the accessory item I was looking for
