Recently I was talking to my neighbor and he was talking to me
about how he was always losing his dog; He had no idea that pet
tracking devices were even available! Not that I was surprised,
I just found it ironic that I had a pet tracking site, and we
had never really talked about the subject. I told him about the
different options that were available, and he ended up
purchasing a radio pet tracking device and uses it all the time!
I decided that it would be helpful to give people some
information on the technology available.
Radio Pet Tracking Using a radio pet tracking device is the most
affordable way to track your pets. You can get radio transmitter
collars in varying sizes, and a corresponding receiver that
signals when pointed in the direction of you pet. So you can
point the receiver in different directions, allowing you to
basically use the 'hotter/colder' or 'marco/polo' approach to
finding your pet. When the device is pointed in the direction of
your pet, it will give you a signal. You can then approach that
direction until you've found your pet. Most radio pet tracking
devices can send and receive signals anywhere within 1 to 4
miles, depending on terrain and physical obstacles. Here are
some radio pet tracking devices manufacturers that we've been
able to find: Pettrax Innotek
GPS / GSM Pet Tracking GPS / GSM Pet Tracking is the newest
technology available to track your pets. The basic concept: Your
pet has a collar holding two devices: A GPS (Global Positioning
System) receiver - Uses satellites to estimate position of your
pet. Usually these GPS receivers can estimate your pets location
to 15 meters or less. A GSM (Global System for Mobile
Technology) modem. More or less, this device is a cell phone for
you pet that can transmit your pet's location to your mobile
handset (cell phone) via SMS (text message) technology GPS / GSM
pet tracking devices are very reliable and insure that you can
find your pet as long as it's in an area that has GSM cellular
service. If you're interested in finding out whether or not
there is GSM service in your area, you can find out at

available. Naturally it would be the most expensive.
