Why not take the alarm output signal and relay that signal to a transmitter that will train/contain your dog? Did someone already have intellectual property on this idea? Sounds like a great opportunity for a hack to get the ideal combination of easy installation and configurable fence boundary. ANyone have any background on this? Okay, neat.

The antenna needed for GPS would probably be way to big to conceal that way. I don’t think so. The antenna needed for GPS would probably be way to big to conceal that way.

The collar is the first thing someone will remove if they have stolen your pet. Is there a gps chip that can be placed under the dogs skin?

Additional collars are $159 each. What a great idea to allow dogs to roam large areas without supervision. But I seem to have missed the description that explained the warning alarm that goes off when the unsupervised dogs are chewing the arm off of a 5 year old kid at the playground. There is usually a story once a month about pit bull, mastiff, etc. attacks. And then the owner will say, "but he is really a good dog".
