Could You Use A Dog Tracking GPS Collar For Your Pet

By Annie Harrison


You do not like to admit it, but your dog is hard to keep in the yard. Before you drive both it and you crazy by attaching the dog to a chain, or building an enclosure to keep it closer to home, try a technology that is amazingly simple to use and effective. Try dog tracking GPS units to keep a watchful eye on the dog while you sleep or are busy around the house.

All dog gps units the dog to wear a specialty collar which transmits its location back to you. They come in sizes small, medium and large. Make sure that you choose a collar that fits the neck of the dog correctly so that it can not be easily removed.

Electronic, GPS and virtual fences are an effective way to keep the dog at home without spending thousands on putting in fencing or making a dog run. These systems allow you to set a perimeter that the dog can enjoy from the base station in your home. However, when they decide to leave home base, the companion unit on their collar makes a noise that encourages them to return to their home. You need never worry that your beloved pet leaves safety again.

Some dog GPS units operate on a short range basis. Others can track the dog's comings and goings as far as a mile away. Choose the tracking GPS unit that most deals with your pet's behaviour.

Some dog tracking GPS units are subscription based and enable you to have full internet and live support in tracking your delinquent dog. Some of these use MURS bandwaves which can pick up the signal from the dog as far as a mile away.

Some dog GPS units are designed for tracking while hunting with your dog. Using their collar and a VHF radio signal, this type of dog tracking gps unit sends a signal to your own portable GPS unit that shows you not only where your dog is, but also the track that they took in pursuit of their prey. This incredible system can tell you what your dog is doing, whether it is sitting, running, has gone on point or even has managed to tree its quarry.

A dog tracking GPS can be a great tool to help you keep tabs on your dog. Whether it is close to home, or out in the bush hunting, you will know exactly where you can find it. Then, you can take him safely home again.
