Pet Technology - Top 3 pet gadgets

There are a lot of things that you can do to keep your pet healthy and happy. Some of the most important things are:

• Everyday interaction and play time.
• Proper food and the right quantity of food.
• Fresh and clean water to drink every day.
• Grooming, bathing and spa services too.
• A great pet insurance plan.
• Regular visits to the vet.
• Technology.

Pet technology has come to the fore in a big way because it offers pet owners different ways in which they can monitor their pet’s health, location and so on. Here are the top 3 pet gadgets that you simply must have.

GPS

Knowing your pet’s location is important for many reasons. It could be that you have a pet that is prone to running away from home. It could also be the fear of someone stealing your precious little one. Regardless of the reasons, fitting your pooch with a GPS device is an extremely smart idea.

You could opt for:

• Dog collars or tags that can be fitted with a GPS device.
• Microchips that can be inserted under the pet’s skin by a vet.

A compatible app on your mobile phone will then help track your pet very successfully. As a part of this tech, you can also invest in a smart collar itself. Such a collar can help in voice communication with your pet and can come with LED so you can locate your pet under low light conditions too.

Feed system

There are many technological innovations that help you feed your pet throughout the day. This is especially important if you are going to be away for a long time. The feed system is either timed or can be controlled through your smartphone. While there is no denying that it is best to feed your dog personally, sometimes long hours at work or a long trip may keep you away from your pet for a while.

With a smart feeder you need not feel guilty about missing feeding time. Such a feed dispenser can be used to dispense treats as well. There is also a water dispenser that can be fitted outdoors. This system turns on automatically when you dog is close by and turns off automatically too.

Activity tracker

When human beings have fitness trackers, why can’t dogs? This is exactly what you will get when you get a fitness tracker for your feline or canine friend. With a tracker you get to see:

• Exactly how many hours your pet has been active.
• Sleep patterns.
• Track their walking route and so on.

You can keep tab on their activity and see whether they are getting enough. Of course, your pet will be able to tell you exactly how much your dog or cat should be doing in order to remain healthy. There are trackers that will also monitor all the vitals of your pet and transmit the same to your phone. So you will know even something like the next vet’s appointment thanks to a comprehensive tracker.
