Products & Fit
What dogs is Lucero built for?
Lucero is built for dogs that need stronger GPS context, health monitoring, and anxiety support in one connected collar.
How many health metrics does PawPulse monitor?
PawPulse continuously derives 32+ health signals, including 10 core vitals such as HR, HRV, respiratory rate, sleep quality and stage, stress, pain, activity, breath depth, and breath VOC, plus 22+ derived trends, anomaly counters, and breed-adjusted indices.
Is PawPulse just a GPS collar?
No. PawPulse combines health monitoring, location intelligence, and Pulse Therapy in one product system for earlier awareness, better context, and faster action when something changes.
Health & Calm
How do PawPulse alerts work?
PawPulse compares live signals against a pet-specific baseline instead of relying on generic averages. That helps reduce noisy notifications while making real changes easier to spot.
What is Pulse Therapy?
Pulse Therapy is PawPulse calm built into Lucero. It gives you another tool inside the same app and collar experience when your dog needs help settling.
What is VOC monitoring used for?
VOC monitoring adds environmental and wellness context to the PawPulse signal stack. It can help surface changes related to air quality and other wellness patterns alongside the broader health picture.
Does PawPulse replace my veterinarian?
No. PawPulse is a monitoring platform, not a diagnosis or treatment substitute. It is designed to help you notice changes sooner and share better context with your veterinarian.
Battery & Location
How long does the battery last?
Lucero is currently positioned around 30+ days of battery life. Exact endurance varies with tracking mode, firmware, signal conditions, and how the collar is used.
How does Lucero handle location tracking?
Lucero uses a broader location stack built for stronger outdoor tracking context, including cellular and satellite-ready backup when the use case calls for it.
Does Lucero include satellite-ready backup?
Yes. Lucero is engineered with LTE plus satellite-ready backup. Final satellite availability depends on carrier support, launch configuration, certification, and regional rollout.
Is PawPulse waterproof?
PawPulse is being designed for real-world pet wear, including rain, mud, and daily outdoor use. Final waterproof claims will follow the certified rating and launch spec.
Pricing & Launch
What are the current launch prices?
BackerKit reservations are $5 to hold a Kickstarter launch spot before the CES 2027 campaign. Final Lucero reward pricing will be announced closer to launch, with tier availability depending on launch inventory and Kickstarter timing.
Will PawPulse require a subscription?
Pricing depends on the product and the service layer being used. Current plan language lives on the pricing and Kickstarter pages, including any backer-locked rates.
Can I compare Lucero and competing GPS dog collars in one place?
Yes. The compare page shows how Lucero stacks up against Fi, Halo, SATELLAI, SpotOn, Tractive, and other alternatives across health, battery, weight, Pulse Therapy, and location.
What is PawPulse's estimated delivery window?
The current public delivery window is estimated spring 2027, pending certification and production validation. If that changes, the pricing, Kickstarter, and press pages will carry the latest public details.
Vet & Support
Can I share PawPulse data with my vet?
Yes. Vet sharing is part of the PawPulse platform. It makes trend history, alerts, and context easier to review outside a short in-clinic visit.
How quickly does support respond?
For support, press, or partnership requests, the contact page is the right channel. Response times depend on queue volume, and the form routes your message to the right team.
Where can clinics start?
The vets page is the best starting point for clinics. It explains shared access, workflow benefits, and how PawPulse fits into a veterinary workflow without extra complexity.
