We use GPS devices to locate and find people; why not use a GPS device for your dog? There are GPS tracking systems in place for fishermen, athletes, automobiles, and motorcycles. Some are even made especially for children. Many dog tracking systems can help you establish a GPS fence. The system links to a GPS-enabled collar for your dog to track his location, velocity, and direction, and ultimately has the capability to track up to three GPS-collared dogs at once.
After you walk your designated fence boundary, an alarm will sound if your dog leaves that area wearing the equipped collar. The boundary is electronic and can be reset by you to adapt to travel, visits, or any other situation.
Imagine the security in knowing where your dog is at all times, especially those escape artists who like to chase squirrels and can disappear in the blink of an eye. Itâs perfect for the old dog that may aimlessly wander off your property from time to time or just that canine social butterfly that likes to check out the smell of your neighbor’s barbecue.
