While I admit to only one loose dog in the past 10 years, I would love a GPS 
for my dogs.  Yes, Lojack.  I want it for my kids too!!!!  I trust the older 
one, he can't hide his eyes from me, but the younger one is close to doing all 
the things I did when I was a little older than he is now.  I DON'T TRUST 
HIM!!!!!  Turning 15 in 11 days and not trustworthy at all.
   
  My dogs I trust.  They are so devoted to all of us, not just me.

Have any of you seen this new Flash drive collar tag?  It is a collar you keep 
on your dog that has a flash drive in the tag.  You input all your info and 
the vet's info in it.  If your dog escapes, one only needs to plug the flash 
drive into a USB port of thei computer and can get all your info to return your 
animal.



Ok, this sounds great, in theory.  But, if this dog is a sweetie, who is to 
say the finder won't ditch the flash drive and keep the dog.  Or, let's say 
the dog becomes a problem for the finder and they turn it in to AC without the 
collar.  This may be a good option as a back-up to a chip but I don't know 
that I would trust it.  And, my dogs don't wear collars at home.  This is due 
to possible hangings or the hair loss from a collar on the show dogs.  Mine 
are all chipped and escape is not an option anymore :-)Â  Not an option for me 
but an interesting invention.  The company that makes them is PetSafe.  It is 
not on their website, that I could find.  But, if you Google PetSafe MicroID 
it will give you websites to buy this collar.

Next thing you know we will be putting Lojack on our dogs, LOL!
