*Independently tested

What makes SpotOn so accurate?

SpotOn delivers industry-leading accuracy thanks to its powerful dual-band, dual-feed antenna and dual-band receiver. This "triple threat" hardware advantage makes SpotOn more accurate and precise than any other virtual containment option. . It locks onto a 151-satellite network and reads your dog's direction, speed, and acceleration to calculate their true position with AI. In independent tests, SpotOn was more than 7x more accurate, worked 100% of the time, and stayed reliable even in forests, metal-roof environments, and remote areas where other fences failed.

How do I know SpotOn will work for my dog?

Once the dog is trained, SpotOn has a near-perfect success rate, with dogs staying within their boundaries 99.3% of the time they spend outdoors.

We know even the most well-trained dogs can have a moment of weakness. For the less than 1% of the sessions that result in escapes, 81% of dogs return to their fences within one minute, and 92.1% of dogs return back to their fence within five minutes.

I have multiple dogs. Can I add another collar or do I need 2 separate systems?

Since the entire SpotOn system is self-contained in the collar, each dog requires their own collar and their own (optional) cellular subscription. You can share fences between collars and manage multiple collars through the App.

We offer an automatic discount when you buy 2+ collars in one order: $100 off per collar, as of January 2025. Offer subject to change. Cannot be combined with any other offers or sitewide sales (deepest discount will apply).

Will SpotOn work in areas with no cellular service?

Yes, SpotOn works without a cellular connection!

Unlike your phone, SpotOn Fence can access GPS without a cellular connection, just like the original Garmin© and TomTom© navigation systems for your car. GPS is available anywhere you can see the sky, and its free.

On the app, you set your virtual fence which is loaded to your collar and issues cues to your dog.

However; if you want a GPS collar to send messages back to the app, it requires a cellular connection, since GPS does not send two-way messages.

If you just want your collar to contain your dog, the GPS connection is in constant communication with the collar to keep your dog secure.

If you want deeper insights and more control, you'll find a lot of value in adding a tracking plan, which will require reliable cellular service in your area.

Features included in the plans include:

  • Tracking if your dog escapes
  • Seeing your dog's location in the app
  • Notifications if your collar's battery is low or if your dog escapes
  • Manual Feedback
  • Activity Maps
  • NEW! Activity Tracking
  • NEW! Custom Voice Commands

...and more.

I have a smaller yard. Can I use this product?

To give your dog enough space to roam without frequent feedback, we recommend you have ⅓ acre or more. The fence should be at least 80 feet wide at its narrowest point. Because your dog will hear tones 10 feet inside the boundary, if your fence is too narrow at any point, your dog will not be able to move freely without constantly hearing tones. 

Additionally, when planning your fence, account for GPS drift ーtypically between 3 to 10 feet near tall structures or heavy forest. It is important to include a 15-foot buffer zone between the boundary and any unsafe area, like a major roadway.

Unsure SpotOn is a good fit for your yard? Request a property evaluation. We’ll review your yard and reply back by phone or email —your preference. Our team will give you honest feedback on whether or not SpotOn will work for you, and recommend optimal fence placement if its a good fit.

Does SpotOn offer e-collar capabilities?

While SpotOn is not a traditional e-collar or remote training device, it does offer Manual Feedback. This feature allows you to deliver on-demand cues (tone, vibration, or static correction) to your dog using the app. This feature requires a tracking plan and works best in areas with good cellular coverage. Whether you’re in your backyard or miles away, Manual Feedback gives you more communication and more peace of mind. 

Is SpotOn waterproof? Can it be used when in the rain/snow or for swimming?

Yes. SpotOn's dog collar is waterproof to IP67 standards. It is designed for year-round use in any weather from -30 degrees F to greater than 120 degrees F. Your dog can swim and play in the rain or snow while wearing it.

How long does the battery last? How long does it take to charge?

If you use SpotOn with a tracking subscription, you'll get 33+ hours of runtime or even longer if you activate Extended Battery Life Mode. Click here to learn how you can maximize your battery life.

Will SpotOn work in Canada?

Absolutely! Since SpotOn is connected to four global satellite networks, it will work in Canada just as well as it does in the United States. 

If you opt-in to the tracking subscription, SpotOn will communicate with your phone regardless of which carrier you use. It works with Bell, Telus, Rogers, Freedom, and more.
