Are you looking for a way to keep better track of your pet? Unfortunately, some pets have a tendency to run away from home on a regular basis. But, even if your pet is a homebody, you might want to consider utilizing some form of pet tracking device in order to avoid losing your pet if it manages to get away from home.
When it comes to pet tracking devices, you have three basic options to select from. These include:
o Radio Pet Tracking
o GPS / GSM Pet Tracking
o Pet Tracking Microchips
Determining which one is best for you is a personal decision that should be made based upon the pros and cons of each device as well as your budget.
Radio Pet Tracking
Radio pet tracking devices are the least expensive form you can purchase. In addition, it is one of the least invasive methods because it involves simply purchasing a special collar with a radio transmitter. When your pet is wearing the collar, you only need to point your receiving device in the direction of your pet and the receiving device will set off a signal. This allows you to track your pet by determining its general direction and then continuing to follow the feedback from the transmitter until your pet is located.
Of course, there are some limitations to radio pet tracking devices. For example, the range of these devices is limited. Most of these devices, however, are able to send and receive signals ranging from one to four miles away. The terrain of the land will have an impact on how far the devices will be able to transmit their signals.
GPS / GSM Pet Tracking
The GPS / GSM pet tracking device is similar to the radio devices in the sense that it involves placing a special collar on your pet. In this case, however, the collar holds a GPS receiver as well as a GSM modem. The GPS, or Global Positioning System, utilizes satellites to estimate where your pet is located within 15 meters or less. The GSM, or Global System for Mobile Technology, modem acts almost like a cell phone that transmits your pet's location through text messaging technology.
This technology is very reliable and you are almost guaranteed to find your pet if it is located in an area that offers GSM cellular service. Therefore, it is important for you to first make certain GSM service is available in your area before getting this service. In addition, this is the most expensive form of pet tracking available, so you also need to make certain it fits within your budget.
Pet Tracking Microchips
Pet tracking microchips are also a more expensive option, but they are also very reliable. While microchips will not actually help you track down your pet, your pet can be easily identified if it has a microchip implanted under its skin. In fact, a simple scan of your pet will bring up a unique identification number that makes it possible to look up your address and have your pet returned to you after it has been found.
