A puppy can be a lovable but very demanding addition to a home. Puppies require a lot of time and attention, and they need safe places where they can explore and grow.
To puppy-proof your home, first you need to clear the floor of any small items. These can include coins, paper clips, rubber bands, earrings, or any items that can be swallowed by your puppy and cause an emergency visit to the vet. Puppies are curious, and to them, anything lying around is worthy of play time. Electric cords are another hazard: you may have to tape cords up to keep them out of your puppy’s reach or put a bitter substance on them to prevent him from chewing on them.

You treat your pet like one of the family – you shower him with love and affection, pamper him with goodies and can’t live without him. You then understand the fear of losing your beloved pet or have him go missing. Dog owners all over have always been afraid of one day having to scour the streets and search the shelters for their treasured pet. Until now, the normal procedure involved in looking for a missing dog was to put up posters offering a reward, lodging a complaint with your local police station and searching all over the neighborhood yourself. Most owners wont rest till they are reunited with their pet and this can be one of the most stressful experiences anyone can go through.
Thankfully, courtesy the latest GPS technology, there is a new, highly successful way of keeping a track of your pet at all times. Basically, an A-GPS Pet Tracking system uses the same assisted global positioning satellite (A-GPS) technology that we use in our automobiles today. The transmitter is attached to the dog’s collar and once activated, it informs the owner of the pet’s location through email or text alerts. Some devices even allow you to program specific safe zones such as your home or local dog park, and when your dog leaves these areas you are informed of the same, thus saving precious time in tracking your missing pet. Since it uses GPS technology, you will receive not only the location of your missing pet, but also instructions and directions on how to get there. Some pet tracking devices are associated with a recovery center that is alerted once the pet goes missing and in this way, a combination of efforts takes place for the tracking and recovery of your lost pet. One device is fitted with a bright LED beacon that is visible from over 100 yards, which is especially useful when your dog goes missing at night. When choosing a GPS Pet Locator, make sure that the device you choose has a long battery life, is water resistant, and is sturdy such as the SpotLight GPS Pet Locator. SpotLight is one of the smallest GPS devices available on the market today, is water resistant and built to last.
SpotLight is the next step in providing recovery services for your pets. It offers total peace of mind in knowing that your dog is always being monitored, no matter where you are. SpotLight offers a dedicated 24 hour, year round service. Created and developed in conjunction with the American Kennel Club Companion Animal Recovery (AKC CAR) team to reduce the number of lost dogs, buying a SpotLight GPS Pet Locator includes an exclusive AKC CAR collar tag with unique ID number that includes Lifetime enrollment in AKC CAR’s Recovery Service as well.

There are all sorts of instances when locating your dog in the dark becomes a priority. Walking your dog in the dark can be fraught with anxiety when maneuvering between speeding vehicles. It could also be as routine as just noting where he is when you let him out in the yard for a potty break before bedtime. The worst-case scenario however would involve losing your beloved pet at night. All sorts of horrific possibilities enter your mind and you worry about how to locate him in the dark. Thankfully there are an array of products specially designed for just these situations that make tracking and finding your pet at night a lot easier.
You can choose between tag lights that clip onto your pet’s collar and can be easily transferred or collar wraps that are larger and fix onto a dog’s regular collar like a reflective sleeve. Also, an option is light collars that are bulkier but provide a greater range of visibility. But if you really want to combine technology with practicality, it would make sense to look into the option of a GPS collar with a lighting feature. One such product is the SpotLight GPS Pet Locator created and developed by Positioning Animals Worldwide (PAW) in conjunction with the American Kennel Club Companion Animal Recovery (AKC CAR). The device is used to track and locate missing dogs using the latest GPS technology. In short, using satellites and Google Map applications, it will inform you of your pet’s whereabouts at any given time. In addition to giving you the location of your pet, the device tells you how to get there as well as how fast your dog is moving (this is especially relevant in case your pet has been stolen and is being carried away in a vehicle). Apart from this, owners can create specific ‘Safe Zones’ that are pre-determined secure locations. If and when your pet leaves these safe zones (for example, your yard or a local dog park), you will be notified by an email or text alert. A history of your pet’s roaming habits over a week can also be obtained from the SpotLight website.
The SpotLight GPS Pet Locator is rugged and durable along with being lightweight and water resistant. Good news for owners of over active and hyper pets. The battery can be removed and recharged and there is also an AKC tag that includes your dog’s individual identification number. When your dog goes missing and is found again, this ID number comes in especially useful. The AKC has over four million of such numbers in its database and the organization has trained staff on call around the clock to talk you through the process of finding your pet again. Owners of the SpotLight GPS system thus have access to the AKC call center and the best recovery team available.
The device also comes with an LED beacon that makes it easier to track your pet in the dark. Attached on to the collar are five lights serving different functions. The main, and largest LED, is the SpotLight that can be activated even from a distance through your cell phone, computer, or by calling 1-888-DOG-LOC8. This LED light strobes to make it easier to spot your pet at nighttime. The other four lights inform you about the status of the alarm system, the battery power, and the connectivity to a cellular service and to the GPS system. With all this to offer, the SpotLight GPS Pet Locator is definitely your best bet in keeping your dog safe and secure during the day and night.

Dog owners all over the country are yelling for the latest in tracking systems used to help recover their lost pets. Thanks to developments in computers and technology, you now have GPS Pet Tracking systems that offer peace of mind and security. Once attached to the pet collar, these pet tracking devices provide round the clock monitoring of your dog’s movements. A GPS Pet Collar works in much the same way as the tracking system on your automobile does. Now, pets can be tracked down online with the help of detailed directions to their location courtesy of the collar. Through a series of alerts via phone, text messages or email, an owner can easily recover his missing pet in no time. It sounds like the perfect solution but before you rush out and buy one, ensure that you are making the right choice. Here is a checklist of 10 things to look out for when choosing a GPS Pet Tracking Collar:
1. What is included? – There is already a staggering array of choices available when it comes to GPS Pet Tracking collars. Some are basic, giving you only the location of the missing animal, while others are more sophisticated providing the location as well as detailed directions on how to get there. You need to figure out how much you can afford in terms of inclusions and services offered.
2. What is the size of the unit? – Most GPS Pet collars are best suited for medium to large size dogs. If your pet is smaller, weighing 30 pounds or less, the collar might be too heavy and cause discomfort, as well as possible long term back problems.
3. How efficient are the support services offered? – Do your homework regarding the customer service offered by the GPS Pet Tracking System provider. When your pet goes missing, what you really need is an efficient support staff who will talk to you through the steps towards recovery. Make sure the staff is available 24/7 and easily reachable through a toll-free number.
4. Will it last? – A good GPS Pet Collar should be waterproof. Dogs love the water and the unit needs to be sturdy enough to withstand the rough and tumble involved in a dog’s normal routine. Look for the most durable device you can get your hands on for long-term satisfaction.
5. What tracking system does it use? – Some devices use an A-GPS pet tracking system in combination with cell phone technology. This will assure you of the widest coverage range and a sustained signal, even in heavily wooded areas or inside buildings.
6. How will you receive the information? – You can access information from the GPS Pet Tracking Device via the phone, text messages or the Internet. Be sure that the device you pick has the options best suited for you. For instance, text messages might work best for people who are not online often or cannot connect to email through their phones.
7. Is the device easy to use? – When setting up the tracking unit and programming your pet’s safety zones and boundaries, an easy to use unit is a must. A few pressing of buttons and your work should be done. Ask your dealer or service provider for instructions beforehand.
8. Is the tracking device fitted with any accessories? – A-GPS Pet Collar fitted with a bright LED beacon is much more useful when your dog goes missing at night.
9. How do you recharge the unit? – There are some devices in the market that require you to replace the entire device when the battery no longer works. Look for one that has an easily removable and rechargeable battery.
10. Have you checked out the reviews of the device before buying? – Thanks to the Internet, you can now read detailed reviews from consumers about the GPS Tracking Systems you have short-listed. Read these online reports about how the unit works, the response of the support staff, and the effectiveness of the device, in order to make an informed decision.
