I just published a hub on hubpages about Pet Tracking, which is about two types of tracking…the type of tracking that involves injecting or embedding a micro chip in your pet and the kind witch allows the pet owner to track their lost pet via a collar that has a chip on it, and has a hand held GPS unit to track the animal.
I think that using either one of these is a good idea, because having a lost pet really is an emotional ordeal that can be prevented, so why not do one or the other for your pet.
What about you, what do you think about pet tracking?
Hi there,
I’ve just found your blog today. Looks very nice.
Regarding pet tracking I think that it is a great idea. More and more pets are running away from home and some are even kidnapped. An injected chip would help us as pet owners to find what we have lost.
From what I know a chip won’t hurt the pet.
I suppose this chip is not so safe as it seems to be. Animals are very sensitive to all kind of waves
I absolutely agree. Loosing a pet can be an extremely frustrating and heart-breaking experience. Technology has helped us and also hurt us in many ways. We should defenitly take advantage of the positives.
Hi there… I came across your blog and since it contains information very related to what I’ve placed on my own site (monitormypets.com) I’d like to link to you if you don’t mind. Feel free to link back to me as well. I figure the more information we can share, the better informed everyone can be!
