When I read about a guy in Massachusetts spending almost $5000 finding his runaway dog, I didn’t really think that he was crazy or too lavish; in fact I understood where he was coming from. I have a three year old Labrador named Fluffie and I would probably go through the same lengths just to retrieve him if he ever goes missing. I was going through the pet supply store one day when I saw a peculiar ad about a GPS tracking system that you could latch on to your dog’s collar so you can track him at all times. I called up the company and a few days later they came over to install a GPS tracker on my dog’s designer collar.

You have no idea how much that GPS tracking system saved me from stress when three weeks after it was installed my dog jumped over the picket fence and wandered off into the neighborhood. When I realized that my dog was missing I immediately called the service and in a matter of 30 minutes they were able to get in touch with local animal authority personnel to retrieve my dog from its location. I can just imagine how it would have turned out if he wasn’t wearing that gps tracker on his collar.
