Whistle Health & GPS Pet Tracker
Dad came home with a small plastic rectangle and a look of hope. I immediately suspected it was something he would try to attach to my collar.
Dad
Okay. New thing. What do you think?
Boldo
I think it smells like a phone charger and regret. Also, you put it on my collar without asking. That is two strikes.
Dad
I'm going to need more than that. How does it smell?
Boldo
Like a new gadget that hasn't been chewed yet. There's a faint plastic burn smell, like when you leave a laptop charging on a rug. Not offensive, but not interesting. The cat walked by and it smelled like her, so that's something.
Dad
You seemed reluctant to try it. What happened when you did?
Boldo
I tried to scratch it off under the porch. It didn't budge. Then I ran through the yard to see if it would fly off. It stayed. Now it just sits there like a small, silent judgment. I have accepted it the way I accept thunderstorms.
Dad
Anything about this that actually impressed you? Be honest.
Boldo
Fine. It tracked where I went, and Dad stopped yelling my name from the porch. That is a win. Also, the app thingy on his phone showed my sleep, and he said I was 'well rested.' I am always well rested. But he gave me a treat after he saw it. So. Impressed? I am impressed by the treat. The tracker is just a means to an end.
Dad
Final verdict. Don't hold back.
Boldo
It does not smell like anything I want to roll in. It does not make a satisfying squeak. But it got me a treat and stopped Dad from panicking. I will allow it to remain on my collar. For now.

Boldo's Verdict
💩💩💩3 out of 5 poos. It works. I do not love it. But it got me a treat once.
