Dog GPS and
Other Electronics Help With Pet Training
Did you know, for example, that
you can now get a dog GPS? Increasingly,
GPS is also used to track ships, trucks, cars, and now... dogs. The
way a dog tracking system works is that the dog wears a special
collar with a small GPS unit that continually keeps track of the
dog's location.
If your dog is a roamer, a pet GPS
is an absolutely invaluable tool to quickly find him again. No more
anxiety as your dog will never be lost again.
While dog GPS systems are perhaps
the most sophisticated electronics available to pet owners, modern
technology can be helpful in other ways as well. Excessively barking
dogs can be a problem and a nuisance to even the most dedicated dog
lovers. With some dogs, training will only go so far, and desperate
dog owners may consider debarking.
If bark is detected, the collar
will issue a harmless but effective correction.
Some bark control collars may also
contain harmless sprays that issue burst of spray as a bark
deterrent.
There are other electronic bark control methods.
Most dogs need exercise to stay in
top shape and burn off excessive energy. However, living conditions,
time constraints or bad weather may not always allow dog owners
exercise their pets as much and as often as they'd like (and the dog
needs). For this, there's another interesting technological solution
in a dog treadmill. Pet treadmills work pretty much the same as
treadmills for humans, but they are designed specifically for dogs.
In the case of a dog GPS, they can
even help save your dog's life.
