Tractive’s Pet-Remote control offers a new way for dog owners to train and communicate with their pets. The Pet-Remote can be attached to a pet’s collar and it uses Bluetooth Smart Technology to send either vibrations or sounds, as specified by the owner on the free iPhone Pet-Remote app.
Over time, after owners teach their dogs the sounds or vibrations that match the signals for commands like “sit,” “stay” or “beg,” dogs will become familiar with the different sounds or vibrations associated with each activity. Using the signals consistently will improve a dog’s ability to learn even faster.
The Pet-Remote is currently collecting funds on Indiegogo and for a pledge of €20, supporters will receive one of their very own.
