This is a device that simply attaches to the collars of both dogs and cats. You will also need to download the stray Safe app. Next you have to determine what you feel is a safe zone for the pet, and this will be the perimeter that you want to keep them in. If they decide to wander out of that area you will be immediately alerted on your cell phone. You will also be able to tell where they have gone. Your personal computer can also be used to track the location of your pet that has decided to stray.

Final Stray Safe Review

We’re going to give the Stray Safe device a thumbs up rating. It is a small price to pay to be able to locate your dog or cat who has decided to go exploring and you are not comfortable with this. GPS has become a great resource for us humans helping us to get back home when we are lost. Unfortunately our pets cannot put this type of product to use themselves, but they can depend on us as their owners to do it for them.

Our Recommendation
If you put your dog out in the yard even if it is closed in, you may still want to use the Stray Safe device. You never know when someone could leave the gate open, or they find a way out. Or if someone is stealing the pet. Then if you take your pet to a park where they can run free, you will still want to safe guard that they are staying within the perimeters that you can set. You really have to give some thought as to the potential situations that could arise where your pet would have a chance to wander off, and if the investment in this device is worth having for those times.
