Waggle RV Pet Safety Monitor Review 

I'll see what I can do. As I've done a few of these I've had suppliers seeking "influencer sponsorships" left and right I'm going to continue to be picky and choosey about what we cover I also require anyone who sends me something to review to acknowledge I will provide whatever unbias commentary I feel is appropriate as a condition to my review

I meant to also say that the Waggle didn’t do a very good job of reporting in at Mackinaw

That is what we do if we can’t get back fast enough. We love Waggle.

I'm trying! Buried under work lately here

Glad you liked it!

Drop us a note here and share your honest thoughts on it

Cool good to know

lol - man. I was ALL ABOUT inspector gadget as a kid

I go to dog shows with my dogs who are like family members. My top priority is my dog's health. In my car they are crated, they have fans blowing on them, the windows are tinted (fairly dark to keep people from seeing the dogs) and I monitor the temps. My boy Chip loves going on car rides and he loves camping because in his mind something fun is going to happen. We are either going to class, going to the vets where he sees his friends or going on an adventure. Maybe you should try speaking with people that take their pets along in the converted vans and find out the reason because it could be that they are actively participating in dog sports like I do and their dogs love the adventures way more than sitting around a house all day doing nothing.

Awe didn’t mean to step on your paws 🐾 Here’s the thing- if trips aren’t completely planned out around including your 4 legged friends to tag along. Well then they just shouldn’t be going? No matter how disappointed You and BoBo might be. Or? Better yet? Maybe hire have someone to sit in the car with your dog while your out and about. No biggie? right? After all, you posted that your very kind to your pet by paying extra for tinted windows and even bought a fan to put in the car as well. Right? So if you spent all that extra money? Then why not hire a person to sit in the car with your dog too. They won’t look weird sitting in the car for 2-3 hours. Because you posted that your windows are all tinted? I’m sure that a dog sitter will also enjoy having that tiny little worthless fan of yours blowing hot air into there face for hours. Probably indirectly giving off more heat from its little motor running in an already rising high temperature vehicle . 🥵 After all who wouldn’t enjoy having a HOT BLOW DRYER on a low heat setting just Blowing hot air on your face for 2 hours straight on a hot summers day.😓 Ahhhhhhhh soooo refreshing!🥶 In the mean time here’s some FUN FACTS to contemplate while your planning your next dog show trip- 🐩 🐕 🐶 Because most Responsible pet owners like yourself 👍 well they already know all these quirky little fun facts about there beloved pets. Fun Fact #1 👉 Out of all of our domesticated fun loving pets out there, and especially DOGS 🐶 are well known to NOT to be able to SWEAT like us humans sweat. Meaning it’s harder for them to cool themselves down like us. 👉Fun Fact 2 Dogs NATURALLY will run warmer then most domesticated pets or humans. Which is why when we are freezing in the winter time ⛄️ even though us humans are wearing a hat scarf and gloves. Have you ever noticed that your dog isn’t cold even though we’re all bundled up. Or while sitting in the sofa our dogs make excellent foot warmers for our cold toes. Because their undercarriage is always significantly warmer than us??? This is because they are unable to release body heat like us humans. There little engines run hotter naturally. And they hold on to that body heat. Even in the SUMMER time. Now you mention that your dog is in a crate while your watching the dog show. Which brings me to… Fun Fact #3 👉 Dogs sweat from a few locations. Most common location is out of there PAWS 🐾 They will START to LICK and LICK 👅 To try and cool themselves down. Unlike there big brained pet owners they don’t realize that is not the best tactic to cool themselves down. Not only are they becoming more dehydrated from constantly licking there paws 🐾 now depending on the size of your crate?🤔 Might be kinda of awkward trying to move around to lick all four sweaty paws 🐾 Keep in mind, they are also using energy to try and lick themselves repeatedly to try and cool themselves down. Which indirectly adds to them over heating more. It’s easier for them to get more stressed out too from the heat. More stressed out then us humans. Fun Fact # 4- Brains turn into liquid 🧠 👉 They have found Dogs dead in vehicles only after of being left for 1 hour in a vehicle. What a sad state to find them in with Brain Matter liquified coming out of there nose and ears. Temp so out on the inside of your dog there brain 🧠 turn to liquid and runs outta of every opening. They’ve have found human babies with the same liquid coming out of there nose and ears. Also most humans babies have also been found with clumps of there own hair in there little hands from the pain of dying like that. So many pet owners see a temp gage and think that it’s perfectly safe for them And forgetting to add on fur and the other fun little facts I mentioned above. 72° might be fine for you but it would be actually be 82° for your dog? Fun Fact # 5 ⏰ Paying attention to the time! 👉⏰ if it takes you 20 mins or 2 hours to get back to your car? Then you shouldn’t of left them in the car if it’s going to take that long to get them outta of a vehicle. Parking in shade or at 3:00 🕒 in the afternoon is the hottest time of the day. All this needs to be considered before leaving them alone in a hot vehicle. Hope this helps Hope you enjoyed my fun fact and tip folks

@@kellyb1420 Right on, right on, right on!!! Kelly, you are outstanding!👍🏼

@@kellyb1420 I wish you would take your time and educate yourself on responsible dog owners because they do exist. I could waste more time explaining to you what I do to keep my dogs safe and happy but it would fall on deaf ears.

@@royvoeller8762 thanks Sorry I’m a dog runner for a few shelters. So, I know a thing or two aabout being in a vehicle with your dog I have run hundreds of dogs across state line for many, many years.. so yeah Thanks 🙏🤗

this one worked on cellular

I agree. I had no idea until I saw your post Josh. Thank you for spreading the word about Waggle! 👍🏼

Just got one - thank you for your review.

I appreciate that. I will not make a "Fluff piece." It's all just my opinion. Someone else may have a totally different outlook on it. But if I dislike something, then I'll let you know.

It's a really good product.

You are so welcome!

👍🏻

Ty Jim

Thanks! Will do!

Thanks, will do whenever I can!

My pleasure!

Right -- That's why i mention the verizon service-aspect of it near the end of the video. It's not a WORLDWIDE solution necessarily. Get out in the sticks and you need to remember it might not function as you expect. TY for this feedback btw. I was wondering if anyone else out there had/used one

@@JoshtheRVNerd I really like the product, the gotcha in my opinion is a limitation with the cell phone signal because some of my local campgrounds don't have cell signals. It would be nice if there was an option so that it could back up to wifi so that if someone has star-link for instance they waggle will continue to work. But if you have star-link there are other devices you can use to monitor temps and having a backup is never a bad idea.

I have GPS trackers on my dogs’ collars that work similarly, and it’s amazing how many people can’t grasp that BOTH the device AND your phone need to have service for it to work…

@@TonyYarusso Yep, it's kind of confusing sometimes. Or they rely on bluetooth which is very short range.

Hi Kathleen Jettlund, Waggle support will reach you during the next working hours.

Our pleasure :)

Oh man… I am so sorry

He’s my buddy

Apologies but my experience with this was limited. I used it for testing purposes, then for a single camping trip. I do not have enough long-term exposure to feel qualified to answer this and won't make something up

There's a lot we SHOULD'VE done like crate training and less spoiling of him but at this point.. we just don't take him camping. We have family members with which he's comfortable staying now and that works well enough the little bit we get to go camp

wow sorry to hear that

Awesome! Our pleasure! I hope it works. Check the pinned post here -- Waggle liked our video so much they offered our customers a discount on the devices. I thought that'd be a cooler idea rather than taking payment for the review -- give back to our viewers who support us all the time :)

There’s a world of widgets out there. I am a casual enthusiast and certainly not an expert. I’m not aware of something but I would surprised if it did not exist If you find one, then drop me a link here and let me know what you think!

He's SOOOO high anxiety.. but he's the biggest lover ever

This wouldn't be for you in that case

It’s cellular and battery powered

Forgot to mention we travel with our Great Dane name Penelope. She was a rescue dog.

it’s based on cellular connection

:)

All you need is the app. So would work on any phone type

Our pleasure Victoria!!

lol sometimes in the summer I just need to keep the sun off my nugget

@@JoshtheRVNerd Have you tried that Forenso shampoo yet?

@@darrell2939 At this point with what little hair I have I think I might as well use whatever leftover RV Wash and Wax I have in the garage lol :)

@@JoshtheRVNerd Great sense of humor anyway. Stay with it Bro ! Best of luck !

My pleasure!

He is also a Coton! It's rare finding someone else familiar with the breed! He is just the best guy

They have some new updates I thought looked interesting but wasn’t able to revisit the product at this time

Ty Renee!!

Is that where your profile pic comes from?

@@JoshtheRVNerd Yes. That's what I wake up too every morning, I just told her to hold still while I got my phone, she likes having her picture taken. Lol

Will do!

It's mostly just him sleeping on the couch or barking at ... anything? nothing? But yeah.. he's worth it :)

@@JoshtheRVNerd Well yeah, someone's gotta keep watch for approcahing postal employees, right?

Ty!

You bet!

He barks at everything but also gives the best hugs so he's worth it :)

@@JoshtheRVNerd Absolutely!!

TY :)

If we get one thru here sometime I certainly would

Yeah I found I had to toggle the power notifications depending on what I was doing

Completely depends on the RV’s equipment package

This one m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9Lhf0DkfYzU.html And here’s a look at one fully tricked out m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VpI0tJkDwmk.html

SOME campers do have similar systems integrated into them actually

@@JoshtheRVNerd AWESOME! SAVE THE PETS

As mentioned in the video it works off Verizon towers. You'll need connection to them

It doesn't, must have cell service for both Verizon and your cell phone. But I like it to help monitor the temp of the crates in my car.

@@JoshtheRVNerd The second half to this is your cell phone also needs to have service. There are a lot of places Verizon works but in my case t-mobile does not work so even though the alerts are being sent they aren't being received.

Thanks for sharing! I messed with it for a day or two before posting this. Always did exactly what it was told and how I expected it to work
