The GPS pet units I have seen advertised attach to the collar and are too bulky for me to consider for our Yorkies. But many hunters use them. They come with an initial cost for the unit and then a monthly fee for the satellite service.
Petland uses the microchip -- it has to be scanned to see the information and is
not a GPS tracking unit:
