Overview

This is an LCD digital rectal thermometer marketed for dogs, cats, and even farm animals, with a 3 inch immersion depth per the listing.

It runs on 2 AAA batteries, offers a resolution of 0.2 degrees Fahrenheit, and has a plastic housing with wipe-clean care instructions. The listed response time is 60 seconds.

At $24.88 with 549 reviews and a 4.2 star average, plus 100 units bought last month, it sits in steady but modest demand territory compared to the top sellers in this roundup.

Pros

  • Clear LCD display for easy reading
  • 3 inch immersion depth suited to larger dogs
  • Runs on widely available AAA batteries
  • Fine 0.2 degree Fahrenheit resolution

Cons

  • Slowest response time in this group at 60 seconds
  • Plastic housing is wipe-clean only, not stated waterproof
  • Lower purchase volume than the top sellers in this roundup

Performance notes

The 0.2 degree Fahrenheit resolution and 3 inch immersion depth suggest a thermometer built for a precise, deep rectal reading rather than speed, which lines up with its comparatively long 60 second response time. Two AAA batteries and a wipe-clean plastic housing keep upkeep simple.

What buyers say

A 4.2 star average across 549 reviews shows generally positive but more mixed feedback than some competitors, and 100 units bought last month puts it well behind the category's best sellers.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a reading take?

The listing states a 60 second response time, slower than several other thermometers in this category, so budget a full minute per reading.

Is it waterproof?

The care instructions call for wipe-clean only, not full waterproofing, so avoid submerging it.

What size dog is it suited for?

With a 3 inch immersion depth, it's built to reach comfortably on larger dogs, though it's always best to follow your vet's guidance on rectal thermometer use.
