The Garmin Fenix® 8S – 42mm Multisport GPS Smartwatch is built for athletes, hunters, and adventurers who want powerful features in a compact watch for smaller wrists. Designed to integrate with the Garmin Alpha® and Astro® dog tracking systems, the Fenix 8S lets you track your dogs directly from your wrist, making it the perfect smartwatch for upland hunters, houndsmen, and dog trainers. Beyond dog tracking, this rugged GPS watch includes advanced strength training tools, dive capability, built-in voice features, and an integrated LED flashlight, giving you performance and reliability wherever the hunt or adventure takes you.
Key Features:
Dog Tracking from Your Wrist – Pair the Garmin Fenix 8S GPS smartwatch with Garmin Alpha handheldsand TT25/T20 dog collars to see dog locations, distance, and status right on your watch face. A must-have for sporting dog owners who want to stay hands-free in the field.
Compact Rugged Design – Perfect for smaller wrists, this hunting smartwatch is dive-rated and built with leakproof buttons, a durable metal sensor guard, and a vivid 1.3” AMOLED display. Choose from scratch-resistant lens and titanium bezel options. Tested to U.S. military standards for thermal, shock, and water resistance.
Built-In Speaker & Microphone – Connect to your smartphone to make and take calls from your wrist. Use off-grid voice commands or your phone’s voice assistant for quick replies and hands-free control in the field.
Integrated LED Flashlight – Bright white light plus a red safety mode keep you visible in low-light hunting or training conditions. The strobe function even matches your running cadence for added safety.
As winter temperatures fall, keeping your dog’s shelter warm, safe, and well-insulated becomes essential. Add high-quality insulation, warm bedding, and a dependable dog-house heater such as the Akoma Hound Heater Deluxe to maintain a steady, comfortable environment. Skip heat lamps, as they pose serious fire and overheating risks.

Keep your dog warm, protected, and comfortable all winter long.
