SpotOn GPS Fence
authentic ratingThe GPS collar with a virtual fence works for some owners, but signal reliability and battery life degrade over time. The collar trains the dog to respect boundaries, but the signal drops and large breeds sometimes push through the correction. Works for rural properties and travel if you charge it daily.

About the rating
Specific experience: breed, behavior, situations (ice fishing, a farm, Jack Russells). The spread of ratings is organic. Low reviews include details of hardware failures and support correspondence.
Strengths
What users love
- Boundary training without a physical fence: after the training course
- Dogs hold the perimeter even without the collar. Portable: one fence setup works at any location
- Even a campsite.
Weak spots
What users hate
- Battery needs daily charging and holds half the charge after about a year. GPS signal is unreliable indoors
- Which can cause the collar to correct the dog while it is resting. A replacement chip costs $400 when the collar itself is $500.
Who it is for
Rural property owners without a physical fence who are willing to charge the collar daily and commit to a training course.
