Fucking hell, half a mile in 90 seconds! A tracker seems like a brilliant idea in that scenario. When I was growing up we had a dog that'd quite often follow a scent at top speed until she was miles away and totally lost. Quite often we'd just give up on her finding her way back and head home in the hopes that she'd turn up there eventually (we lived in a quiet village). A GPS tracker would have saved a lot of stress!

I've been really impressed with Omars new tracker. It's really helped our confidence about where we can let him off his lead. It has a huge range and is accurate to less than 10 metres. His recall is good in most scenarios now but if he sees any rabbit, squirrel or other dogs if they look like they may be up for a run then he's off and recall mode is completely disengaged. Once the chase is over he'll come running back with as much enthusiasm as he ran of with. The other day he went of after a rabbit and was out of sight and over half a mile away in about 90 seconds 😬 i caught up with him so much quicker as i knew which direction to go.
