| Hi Christine, I'm not a Pyr owner (I originally subscribed to this list when I found a lost Pyr), but I have a GSD that is a runner. A couple of years ago I looked into tracking collars for Casper. At that time the big box stores had a product called Zoombak that used GPS and cellular technology. You can even set coordinates such that if your dog is outside a boundary that you can set, you'll get an e-mail or cell phone call. The cost of the device was fairly reasonable, however, there is a monthly fee (if I remember correctly, it was in the neighborhood of $10). I did a Google search and found one that looks similar to this device called Dogtracs (it says it's available at Costco). Since Casper had only escaped twice in several years, I chose not to purchase the Zoombak, but redoubled my efforts to make sure that Casper stayed in the yard (the strange thing with him is that he doesn't try to jump a fence, only if a door or gate is open will he make a break for it). I hope this helps. On Jun 28, 2010, at 1:36 PM, Christine wrote:
