Dog owners are looking for ways to stay connected with their pets more than ever before.

The launch of Hachiko’s revolutionary Smart Collar Sensor and Mobile App will help owners stay connected to their canines and monitor their activity and overall wellbeing each and every day.

Hachiko is a sensor that simply attaches to any harness or collar and measures a dog’s activity using Bluetooth technology that connects to an iPhone 5 phone or higher. Made of tough polycarbonate plastic shell, Hachiko is 100% waterproof and has a 12-month battery life. There’s no need for owners to remove and recharge. Retailing for only $39.99, the sensors are available in a variety of fun bright colors and pet parents can choose a Hachiko that best fits their dog’s style and personality.

A big concern for many dog owners is leaving their pooch behind during a typical workday or when traveling. Pet parents want to be sure the pet sitter is giving Fido the proper care they deserve. Hachiko allows users to invite caregivers and followers to share information regarding the dog’s activity while away. Owners will receive direct messages from their dog, which will inform them on when they were cared for, by whom, and what activities they did throughout the day.

Hachiko allows pet parents to coordinate their dog's care with multiple caregivers, which helps them to worry less. With the app users can monitor how much food, water and treats were given to Fido, as well as log their health and medication. Perfect for making sure your pooch isn’t overeating! Other features include tracking live walks when synched with the mobile app, viewing highlights of the day on the daily news feed, and crowning the caregiver who has taken care of Fido the most, "Hero Of The Day.” With Hachiko, pet parents can coordinate with all caregivers to make sure their pup never misses a walk, a feeding, or is not getting too many treats.

“Hachiko is on a mission to give dogs a voice and our company has created an effective way for pups to communicate with their owners," expresses Eliana Summer-Galai, Director of Community at Hachiko, “We look forward to sharing this new innovative and beneficial technology to all who attend the New England Pet Expo show!”

About The New England Pet Expo: The New England Pet Expo is a woofing, chirping, and meowing good time for the whole family!
