Dear Customer,
You have just purchased this BewellConnect tracker and we thank you for your confidence.

carefully.
Our pets play an important role in our daily lives. Companions for play, hunting, guide for
disabled person, they bring joy, comfort, and also break loneliness and isolation. Precious like a
family member, the loss of an animal is a major source of anguish. Animals often run away and
need to be protected from surrounding dangers or accidents it can cause. Having a pet also
means taking care of its health. In town, our animals often don’t get enough exercise. This is why
we need to check their nutrition and physical activity to prevent overweight.
MyCompanion is a little box which is fitted to the animal’s collar. It is a little concentration of
technology. It contains a G M/GP /GPR tag and various sensors make it possible, at any time,
to locate your pet and accurately follow the path it has travelled to go and find it. All collected
data is stored on secure servers in France.
MyCompanion enables you to monitor the physical activity of your animal: distance travelled,
number of paces, calories burned. You can fix goals of longer walks to get it to move more and

coverage availability in the world.
