For most pet owners, knowing how much their fur (or scale) baby weighs isn’t essential. But, if you have one that’s been sick or injured, knowing their weight can give you peace of mind.

The Greater Goods Digital Pet Scale isn’t just for reptiles. It’s for any pet parent who wants to keep track of their small pet’s weight. Featuring a “wiggle-proof” algorithm, you’ll get accurate weights even with an unruly puppy. It’s ideal for animals up to 44 pounds and is accurate within 5 grams.
Customers love the scale and say it’s sturdy with an easily read display, and their pets were stable while on the scale. The Greater Goods Digital Pet Scale is our pick for the best pet product this month for its outstanding design and overall usefulness.
