i love lucy's whistle it gives me instant information. i know she is getting enough exercise for her age, breed and weight, even when she has sleep overs.

I've had a Whistle device on my dog for over two years. It's very good at tracking health issues that might go unnoticed such as excessive licking and scratching. It also tracks her sleep patterns so I can tell if there's a lot of distractions during the night that I'm not aware of. And, the GPS feature will help me find her if she should get loose. When we're taking a walk it let's me know how far we are from home then shows a summary of where we've been.

Once this device and app were set up we could easily see how our rescue dog was settling in. Her weight and hydration were low and it helps to see exactly how much better she’s doing. It’s only a minute more this week than last but it’s getting better which is encouraging. She did get out the back door and being a sight dog took off running. Got the phone and was able to get in the car to track her. I would never have been able to get her back otherwise. The rescue required me to have this equipment and I’m so so grateful I do.

This is fantastic. I helps to know what is going on in my and how it impacts her lift n health! It is amazing tracking eating, drinking, sleeping, exercise, habits etc. The list is much more! I know how she is doing more than just watching her tail waging!....

Do not purchase. The device and software was very buggy right out of the box during setup, but after making some adjustments, it worked alright. Every time I needed to change the battery, it was the same long process of attaching and reattaching, testing the connection to the app, forcing the app to stop, reopening it, removing the device from wifi, putting it back on wifi, uninstalling and reinstalling the app, just to get the software to recognize a new fully charged battery was attached. I did not allow the battery to die at any point before replacing with a new fully charged battery. About 3 months into using the device, it stopped working completely. No tracking information was available for two weeks, and the device would not recognize any of the four fully charged batteries when attached. The device and batteries were not damaged in any way, not exposed to water, no dirt build up, or other environmental factors that might impact a successful battery change. Customer service is a joke. They ask for unnecessary or already provided information and photos in order to "diagnose" the problem, which is just that they've sent out a device that doesn't work correctly, and that they have developed software that is inconsistent and flaky. No reason for the devices problems were ever given, or an acknowledgement that the devices sold didn't work properly. Just an offer to send out new devices. If you for any reason decide to go with this company, be sure to email their legal department in the first 30 days to let them know that you are retaining your right to legal action and that you are opting out of their EULA that only allows for internal arbitration. They are selling a product they know doesn't work properly, and give the consumer absolutely no way of disputing the problems other than on their terms and turf. The solution they offer is to simply continue to send you faulty and shoddily made devices to go with their barely functional app. They do not want the bad devices back, so you will end up with a graveyard of Whistle batteries and collars. And even worse, you will spend all this time, money, and effort, only to be unable to rely on the device to help you locate your pet. It's irresponsible for the company to keep sending out bad devices that they know won't function when the customer needs them most.

Heath data is very important to me. It helps me know what I need to work on improving for the sake of my pup. Also know her bed and wake times helps insure she gets affect m adequate rest.

Buggy app with a lot of data missing. Wouldn’t recommend it.

NOT WATERPROOF!!!! I have been a whistle customer for over 3 years. Whistle was great for the first 3 years, but they have changed manufacturing process and deny any changes. I have used my collar on my duck hunting dog without any issues for 3 years. BUT, I have had to replace 3 whistle go units in the past 30 days!!! Every time the unit gets wet, the unit stops working. Be aware if your dog gets wet, the unit will not work despite they claims that the unit is waterproof to 6 feet!! False advertising in every way possible.
