Samsung Smart Tag but these will only work with Samsung devices and doesn't have anywhere near as many users as Airtag so your chances of another user finding anything lost is smaller, also battery life is abysmal compared to Tile or Airtag.

Google really need to bake this feature in a-la Apple.

I REALLY need to put one in my mountain bike. I paid a pretty penny for it, and it stays locked up in my garage, but in the event it does get stolen I would like the ability to steal it back.

I have this dog, below, and he likes to go out at night. For all practical purposes he becomes invisible in the dark. We picked up a thermal scope, but you can only see him if there is nothing in the way.

He goes galivanting about on the farm. Usually he is chasing rabbits, raccoons, deer, coyote or possum. Sometimes finding him is impossible.
If one of these were on his collar how exact or close would it pinpoint him?

Beautiful dog and property. I think they are pretty darn exact but my understanding is it only pings off WiFi signals. Read up on it a little bit b/c in your vacant land it may not work.

We occasionally track them when vehicles, laptops, etc. are reported stolen. They have decent range, but it doesn't seem to be exact when in a moving vehicle. The ping distances vary greatly.
