Tracking devices on dogs .

[dainty duck]

I was watching Tv and an advert for these tracker's came on with a bloke saying it was great  that he could tell where his dog was up to 500yrds away ,

 it gave him great delight when his dog came scuttling through a hedge from god only where ,

I can  see these have a place on rescue dogs and tracking deer and game ,

but for Joe public to stick one on his  pooch and let it race about with the idea in his head that he is in control of his dog is stupid and in certain circumstances breaking the law !

what's your thoughts ?

i think in certain circumstances it would be useful....like picking up after a duck flight in the dark...in difficult areas ?

but a well trained dog is the answer....

Hello, I do not have a Dog but I would think all you need is one of those flashing collars for every day walks

They do seem harder and harder to come by from the general public.
