What is Doglo?
Doglo is a durable GPS tracker for your dog, built for all terrains and all weather
Doglo gives you a precise overview of your dog’s location, whether you’re hiking in the forest or walking in the city. The device is waterproof, durable, and lightweight, designed for everyday use even in harsh weather conditions.
Using the mobile network, Doglo works without any distance limitations. You can track your dog from another country if needed. The tracker can stay on your dog’s collar at all times: it acts as a guard device and allows you to activate real-time tracking remotely. Everything is controlled through the Doglo smartphone app, and charging is fully wireless.
Doglo works like a phone for your dog, with a built-in SIM card and its own number. In addition to location tracking, you can call your dog, listen to its surroundings, and give voice commands thanks to the integrated microphone and speaker.
Two models – the right Doglo for every dog
Doglo GPS trackers are designed for dogs of different sizes:
- HLT-4.5 – for small breeds (e.g. corgis, dachshunds, terriers):
• Active tracking: up to 24 hours
• Standby mode: up to 3 weeks - HLT-4.0 – for large breeds (e.g. labradors, huskies, retrievers):
• Active tracking: up to 36 hours
• Standby mode: up to 30 days
🇪🇪 Developed in Estonia, the Doglo tracker is based on the same technology used in the Huntloc tracking system for hunting dogs. It is built to perform in the toughest conditions such as dense forests, poor weather, and over long distances.
A reliable choice for every dog owner.

– Tractive uses mobile coverage, but signal and accuracy may drop in dense forests – not suitable for areas with weak GSM coverage.
– AirTag relies on nearby Apple devices – not suitable for rural areas.
– Radio fences don’t track location, only alert when the dog crosses the boundary – not suitable for dogs that like to run.
The trackers principles
Tracking mode
The green light flashes when searching for a location, and the green light turns on when the location is detected.
- Switching to device tracking mode is done by calling the device, the device starts searching for satellites, and when they are found, the dog’s location is shown in the mobile app. The speed of finding a GPS location depends on whether the dog is in the room, in the car, outdoors, or on the speed of the dog’s movement.
- When calling a device in tracking mode, the device answers the call, and the user can listen to what the dog is doing. Voice commands can be transmitted to the dog via the loudspeaker in the device.
- In tracking mode, the data update interval is 10 seconds by default, the user can change the location update frequency within a range of 1 to 99 seconds in the app (send the corresponding SMS message to the device).
- In tracking mode, the active operating time of the device transmitting at 10-second intervals is approx. 1.5 days (depending on the air temperature and GSM coverage).
- To switch from tracking mode to standby mode, a corresponding SMS message is sent to your device.
Standby mode
When the device is switched on, the blue light on the device flashes quickly, and on the device in standby mode, the blue light flashes ’idly’.
- The device switches to standby mode with the charger (place the device on the charger).
- In standby mode, the device sends out information about the battery level and GSM signal strength once an hour.
- In the standby mode, the tracker is ready to respond to phone calls and SMS commands made to it.
- The device is in standby mode for about 30 days with a fully charged battery (depending on the air temperature and the strength of the GSM signal).
Charging the device
Red light flashes when the device is charging, and the red light is on when the device is fully charged.
- To charge the device, place the device on a charging pad that is connected to the mains. The charging pad uses a microUSB charger, which is also compatible with a car charger.
- If a working device is placed on the charger, the device restarts (green light turns on for 5 s). If you remove the tracking from the charger and put it back in during this time (the green light is on), the tracker switches itself off
