We've been talking for awhile about a need for it here. It's not GPS but GPS isn't all that reliable like people think. The batteries go dead way faster and it can't locate an animal if it's underground or in a very remote area. We've had people find their coon dogs underground in a drain tile after chasing a coon into and getting stuck. Plus we've been talking about making it affordable for pet owners to have. I'm looking for some feedback about this. Please chime in and let me know what you think.
I would love to know more about this!

I looked into the GPS collars just for an added layer of security (I live on 3 acres with 90 acres farmland behind us) so it'd be nice when Jackson goes out to know EXACTLY where he is if he ever got loose or went missing or something. I'd be curious to know what it's about.
