The Latest in Dog Tech

Our stats don’t lie - tons of Venture Pet Parents are techies. It’s no surprise that you’re interested in the latest tech trends for you and your furry friends. You loved the dog home decor blog so we’re continuing in that same vein. We tracked down the newest, coolest, and most useful tech being used by pet parents and putting it straight in your inbox so you don’t miss out! Just like last week - we aren’t affiliates for any of these products and don’t make money from your purchases - we just think they’re cool!

We only operate from 9am-4pm but we know dogs get walked at night. Safety is a priority which makes the Lumi BRILLIANT (all puns intended!) This harness has a bright light with different settings so both you and your dog are visible for nighttime walks *adds to cart*

Alright we apologize in advance for the intrusive thoughts this might bring BUT safety is important. Fires happen and your pets safety may depend on the fire department KNOWING to look for your fur babies. Enter the Rescue Retriever - a smoke activated strobe light that alerts the fire fighters to the presence of a dog! Truly genius and worth installing for the peace of mind alone!

If you’re into wearables, the PitPat is worth looking into. It helps track your dog’s physical activity so you can better gauge how much to feed - especially helpful for dogs like our big guy Cowfred who need to lose some weight. Our vet’s asked us to bring him in once a month for a weigh-in and make adjustments on feeding based on that. With PitPat, you’d be able to track calories and track pup’s activity. They have a higher priced one with a GPS feature but, if that’s your goal, check out the item below!

The Fi is the closest your dog is going to get to an Apple Watch. It tracks everything - physical activity, barking, scratching, drinking water and eating, and GPS location. It’s pricey and comes with a monthly membership but we have several Pet Parents in the Venture fam who use the Fi and love it. They often show us pics of the dog walking routes we use because Fi legit makes them a map! If you’re a data tracker, you’ll love how much info Fi provides on your dog!

We love our dogs - the dog hair that’s an accessory to every item of clothing or blanket or piece of furniture? Not so much. The Geoorood went viral on TikTok this year for it’s easy of use in removing excess pet hair and grooming your pup.

Calling all Doggie Influencers! The Pivo Pod may be marketed for equestrians, but it’s a great product for those who want to record their dog in action. It has tracking software that rotates to capture your dog in real-time! Whether you’re capturing training sessions or videoing playtime to show off their tricks on social, the Pivo Pod’s pet tracking feature

The Halo Collar is the latest in virtual fence technology. It gives you the ability to create multiple virtual fences and uses vibration tech to keep your dog in-bounds. You can program it to make noises to call your dog home too! This is ideal for those who enjoy time outside or on property.
