Testimonials
What pet owners have to say
Charlie loves the water, and thanks to Tractive, I can let him enjoy it worry-free! It is fully waterproof and stays securely attached to his harness. The GPS is incredibly reliable, so I always know where he is, even when he's out exploring the shoreline. The real-time tracking gives me total peace of mind.
Charlie's owner
DOG 6
My new tracker has been perfect for outdoor adventures! Whether paddleboarding or hiking, I can track my dog's every move in real time, even on the water. It's super accurate and the battery lasts for ages. Now, I feel confident letting him explore while staying safe.
Caspar's owner
DOG 6
Loving the light upgrade on the Dog6 over the Dog4 — much brighter and will definitely be a good addition during night walks. The bar illuminates to show the battery level too which is a great feature.
Arlo's owner
DOG 6
Our 14-year-old dog, Bode, still enjoys playing, but now we can ensure he's getting the right amount of rest. Being able to track his sleep and resting heart rate is incredibly reassuring. It's a must-have for any senior dog owner!

Tractive GPS tracker has been a game-changer for keeping tabs on my dachshund's health. With his breed being prone to back problems, I love that I can monitor his activity levels and get alerts if anything seems off.

Excellent service. Have only been using my tracker for a week or so but it's already given me peace of mind. Easy setup and the app is intuitive.
Great peace of mind knowing where my dog is at all times. The battery life is fantastic and the LED light makes evening walks safer.
Highly recommend this tracker. The accuracy is impressive and the health monitoring features are a great bonus.
Worth every penny. My dog escaped once and I was able to find him within minutes thanks to the live tracking. Lifesaver!
Frequently Asked Questions
Looking for answers? You've come to the right place.
Tractive uses GPS/LTE technology and connects to the best available mobile network — just like a phone — to provide location data everywhere your pet goes.
The DOG 6's battery lasts up to 2 weeks and is recommended for dogs that weigh 9 lbs and above. The DOG 6 XL (for dogs 44 lbs+) has the same features and look as the DOG 6, but with a battery life of up to 6 weeks. The DOG XL Adventure (for dogs 55 lbs+) has a battery that lasts up to 4 weeks.
The DOG 6 is suitable for dogs that weigh 9 lbs and above. For bigger dogs from 44 lbs and above, we recommend either the DOG 6 XL or the DOG XL Adventure (55 lbs+).
Health Alerts are sent to your email or via the app if your dog's activity, sleep, vitals, or scratching have shown unusual changes over a longer period. This could be a sign of a potential health problem. These alerts are especially useful when your buddy is trying to hide their pain, or when their symptoms are almost invisible.
Tractive trackers have a built-in SIM card — like your phone — that uses mobile networks to send you location info. All the fees needed to do that are covered by your subscription. That way, you get to enjoy unlimited range worldwide. You can cancel your subscription at any time.
The DOG 6 and DOG 6 XL come with a new look and range of standout features:
- Vitals Monitoring: detect changes in resting heart and respiratory rate.
- Scratch & Bark Monitoring.
- Bright LED lights and sound alerts you can activate from the app.
- New, upgraded design with fiberglass casing.
- Sturdier clips that attach to your buddy's collar.
- USB-C charging.
Tractive monitors your dog's resting heart rate and respiratory rate, collected while they're sleeping or resting. You'll see your dog's daily average compared to its usual baseline, helping you detect changes early and stay ahead of potential health issues.
No, Tractive monitors your pet's behaviors and vital signs and if they change from day to day. We alert you to any changes or longer-term trends that might need your attention, but medical advice and diagnosis should always be sought from a veterinarian.
