ThermalTag is designed to help dog owners have a better understanding of their dog's temperature in both the heat and the cold.

ThermalTag is a device that dog owners connect to their pet's collar to monitors the dog's temperature. If the dog's temperature rises or drops out of normal ranges, the ThermalTag sends an alert through the app on the owner's phone. The tag was designed with dogs in cars in mind. The app also lets owners "drop a pin" where their vehicle is located so if their dog's temperature rises too much, the owner can quickly return to their vehicle to help their canine.

The [American Veterinary Medicine Association](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ben-jerrys-razz-up) has stated that even with windows open, cars can still get dangerously hot for dogs during the summer. ThermalTag will ensure a dog's well-being and the owner's peace of mind.
