Any recommendations to solve the 15 minute trip mode limitation? My dog and I go bumming together a lot!

Yes. At any point within the 15 minutes, press the trip button again to extend the time another 15 minutes. Page 38 of the "TAGG_UG_February2013.pdf" explains this option. You can download that pdf from the Tagg Website. If there is a new version, just look in the index for "Trip Mode."

As you may know, there is a new model nearly ready for release, so this may change at that time, but for now as long as your dog is away from the base station (beyond the "close to base" area) you can simply restart the tracking command from your cellphone and it will work for another 15 minutes or until your dog (or at least the collar) re-enters the safe zone

I just turn my tracker off when I leave & try to remember to turn it back on when I get home.

Mine is working fine. No tripping issues. I believe I got the updated version.

I only used this device twice with my dog while set up at camp and hiking for the weekend before I was over it. My dog is really good about staying by my side, but I think it would have worked better if I used a longer leash. I was using a 4 foot cord and it felt like I was dragging him the whole time. This device wouldn't be good for a dog who pulls on a regular leash because if they start pulling on your hips it could turn dangerous on trails.

My dog is very high energy. I let her run at that speed for 5-7 minutes every other day. Started her on shorter duration though. I put my makeup on in same room as treadmill and keep her company. When I finish so does she. She jumps off only on my command. It disciplines her and when I leave the house afterwards, she's relaxed.

My unit tends to run roughly 10 minutes long per hour of travel...it can not account for my 7-10+ miles per hour over the speed limit and may be adding some traffic variable that I never really see. The close I get to my destination it seem to get in line with a more realistic ETA.

I have the same problem on two I have. The exception is they only run 4 seconds. I talked to Moultrie CS and they said there is a reset button on the timer. Haven't looked yet because they are in the woods. Give them a call. Maybe they will get after it if there are more calls received.

I have happened to add one point to my active route. So you could do one for sure. I simply haven't tried doing more yet.

Hey Thanks man, I will sure try this if I get problems with next unit, I should receve it sometime next week. To be honest I feel like naked without my GPS ...lol

Leslie, did you ever figure it out? I just started traveling towing a 18' trailer with 3 dogs and I need to buy a good GPS that will avoid those steep grades if possible, but also lead me to the closest campgrounds, groceries and gas. There are too many choices and it is so confusing. Looking for advice from someone who has figured it out! Thanks!

Couldn't be very long. My Bernese Mountain Dog doesn't leave it at night. She rarely stays in one place in the summer.

I charge mine every 2 weeks, but my dog is close to the home base most of the time. If it is active more because you have a large house or if activity monitoring is on, you could be looking more like a few days. The last time my wanderer got out, it was after I was notified that the battery was low, but it still had enough power to track him until I found him, which was less that 15 minutes. He was over a mile away and I didn't know what direction he had gone in, so it paid for itself right then. Without the tracker I would have been driving in a search pattern for hours.

Wow! No idea! I would contact the company, as it suggested that it will last for years. Is there any chance there's a hole or rip in it? Maybe that let air in, but I'm just guessing. I still have the one I purchased, but my dog was only able to use it for a few weeks before she passed. I wish you all the best solving this issue! :)

I am having the same issue...it does not tell me where to turn until it is too late. very frustrating

Sorry, GG, mine lasted far less than that. We switched to a TP Link. Hope you can do the same.

It has a "down/stay" feature but that dispenses treats over a period of 15 or 30 minutes. Having said that , the remote control transmission distance was enough that I could leave the house and be out of site from my dog (she couldn't see me through the windows) and activate the dispenser. My ou may want to check out Dr. Sophia Yo 's website. I found it veryhelpful

Sorry I can' help. I haven't gotten that far with my dog as yet. Good luck!
