The Retrieva [Tracking and anti-theft collar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fi-series-3-plus) is a fantastic tool to help dog owners [locate their lost pooches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puppy-platoon).

The Retrieva system includes the Retrieva collar, an ICyou home guard system, and a phone-based View Ranger mapping solution.

The collar has a SIM inside it and uses GPS, GSM and Radio Frequency to track your dog in conjunction with the ICyou portable base station, which also doubles as a recharging unit for the collar.

The pet owner simply opens the [mapping application](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fi-mini) and requests the location of the collar, and they will be advised the exact location of their dog.

It would certainly save a lot of stress and heartache for the owners of dogs who are prone to escaping the backyard.
