Click on the following case studies to see exactly how Heyrex and HeyrexVet assist in monitoring a dog's health. We have four case studies that concentrate specifically on Behavior, Wellbeing and Dermatology.
For research qualification on the monitoring of animals click on the article written by Edwards, J.D ONZM, BVSc, Dip.Bus. and Gibson, D.J.M BSc (Hons), MSc (York) - Novel Technology for the Remote Monitoring of Animals or the more recent article written by Thomas V., V.N. B.A. (Hons) - Efficacy of Heyrex remote biometric monitoring versus observational assessment during a clinical trial.
Heyrex collars are also currently be utilized in a number of canine research trials around the world to monitor levels of activity and rest. The ability of being able to track a dog's activity level and rest 24/7 for these types of studies is absolutely invaluable.
