No Longer a Member | Zoombak gps tracker for your dog I ran across this gps tracker for your dog so if he or she gets lost you know exactly where they are and who may have it. I think this is a wonderful thing to have . Watch the video of how it works. Its called Zoombak. Does anyone have one of these yet? http://www.zoombak.com/ |

| Sometimes threads easily get overlooked. I don't think it's really necessary to get so upset. Nobody is intentionally ignoring you. I think that would be an awesome thing to have. The only thing is Franklin doesn't wear a collar and I worry that the device would be too big for a small Yorkie's neck. I'd definitely love to hear reviews from people who DO have this, though. ETA -- the website says: "Recommended for dogs 15 lbs. and over"

| Well, I think you know better than that! I did go check the video and it looks promising but it also says the phone update capabilities aren't available in all areas. So, it looks like there may be some bugs to work out yet. |

| I think I read something about them here a while back but like anything new I like to wait until the kinks are out and the review are positive before I start looking in to it. Thanks for the post!

| I was wondering when this technology would be used for this purpose. It's finally here. I wonder how much the monthly fee is for the service? The initial $199 price isn't bad. This would be a great thing to have if you have a dog that tends to run away. I don't think it would be much of a help if a dog were stolen, because the thief could just take the dog's collar off (assuming they knew what the zoomback is). |

| i would think that most ppl here wouldnt have one bc it is for bigger dogs, that device looks the size of belle's neck if not bigger and she's 8 lbs... hopefully they'll come out with a more compact version... i'm waiting for the microchip to have something like this in it, then the dognappers can't take it off

| Wish it were smaller.... Now it seems that they recommend it for dogs over 15 lbs., even though the weight is only 2.5 oz. I'm waiting for the micro-chip with these capabilities too. We try to keep a pretty close eye on our babies -- but you never know what can happen. Katelin |
