Zoombak GPS Dog Locator

This cool device --the Zoombak Advanced GPS Dog Locator -- is a dependable way to help you locate your dog if she is stolen (or, if she’s anything like mine, bolts out the door at any given chance). The Zoombak uses Assisted Global Position System (A-GPS), which uses both satellite and cellular technologies, to more accurately help determine the location of your pet wearing the locator.

The small, water-resistant locator attaches to your dog’s collar with a secure (and durable) pouch. You can pinpoint your dog’s location on-demand via Zoombak.com, mobile phone or live customer care. You can also determine your dog's location in real time using their continuous tracking option. Simply log on to Zoombak.com to view a map of her location, as well as her path taken since leaving home. Once you create and activate your own customized safety zones, you can be notified by text message and/or email (your choice) when your dog leaves the zone.

The Zoomback GPS Dog Locator sells for $199.99 and provides unlimited on-demand location requests and a 24/7 toll-free phone number for live customer care and location support.

Also available is the Advanced GPS Car & Family Locator. Perfect in the event you need to locate your car, teenage driver, or anyone else you’re worried about. Also handy if your vehicle gets stolen. It retails for $249.99. www.zoombak.com
