Hi There !

I would like to buy a dog collar with a GPS locator built in.
Even better would be a GPS "chip" that could be attached
to my dog's current collar.

I know these are already on sale in Japan.  Do not
know if they are available here.

A 5-star answer would be one web site that sells these.

All comments greatly appreciated !

Hello again nronronronro and thank you for your question.

Here they are! but be warned, they are not very cheap!

"GPS Pet Tracker

pager device that easily and remotely monitors the location of

Not GPS but an alternative:
"The all-new Command Series II Professional Premium Tracking System
combines multi-frequency compatibility with pin-point accuracy for
coon hunters, field trialers, and hound enthusiasts across the
country. It operates simultaneously on the four frequencies of 216,
217, 219, and 220MHz. This means that a single multi-frequency
receiver can track a collar operating on any of the four frequencies.
Frequency matching problems are a thing of the past"

Also:
"Zhou said Digital Angel next month will introduce a pager-size pet
tracker, with smaller wristwatch-size devices to come that incorporate
biosensors for use with humans."
