Does The Gps Dog Microchip Work?

If you have a dog and you learn about gps tracking

, you will want to know more. Is a gps dog microchip a good idea for your dog? People are getting confused about dog tracking. Keep in mind that a microchip is just for identification. A gps is usually embedded into the collar. Do these work? How well? will it transmit far? Is it hard to use? What happens if it gets wet or dirty?

Those are just your first questions. Next you will want to know how much they are and if they work well. Will they be safe for your dog? Are they comfortable? Will someone take your pet to get to the collar?

Any dog owner would want to know everything there is to know about this revolutionary concept. Your dog can get out at anytime. Your dog is not always predictable. Sometimes you dog does not listen. You have seen your dog dart away from you before and it scared you. Dogs run fast when they escape. They cannot wait to sniff the new things that are further away. Your dog does not understand cars!

People with puppies or expensive dogs have more to worry about. There are many pet finders not so eager to find the owner. A woman recently visited a pet shop, happily buying toys and products for the new dog she found. I politely asked her if she had tried to find the owner. She quickly changed the subject. She obviously had not tried hard enough. The pet shop clerk was just happy to make a sale and did not want to interfere.

A gps collar is a extremely comforting thought. It allows you to put all of your fears at rest. You want to know if this miracle device is worth its price. To answer that question, you have to investigate the brands and models and see what they do. You should also read product reviews by real customers who have used the unit. Are they a hassle to use and is the hassle worth it?

Many of the collars have what is called a programmable safety zone. This is the set parameter that you pet normally occupies. You can set several zones so that when you take your pet to the park, for instance, you will not need to reprogram. Some of the collars are designed to allow your pet 15 minutes to return after leaving a designated zone. This feature has it pros and cons. Many times, the dog does return and you will not be bothered with a false alarm. The bad part is, the dog can get a 15 minute head start.

Keep in mind that some gps packages only work with a monthly service commitment. Some collars will not even work on little dogs. A few of the brands have weight requirements. This is why you need to check and compare.

Finding the answers can be tough, but they are out there. Some say the gps dog tracking works. Continue your research. You never know when the gardener is going to leave the gate open.....
