Deleted User: You are a punk Bitch !!!! She is leaving you for a real Dude !!!!

ITM: You bought that hound an iWatch....or is Bayleaf your Hooker?

BigJay: Wouldn't it be cheaper to just train her to come whenst you call her?

weave: Had a big scare two weeks ago. Wife was in VA walking the dog near the national forest and I was in DE. She called and said she lost the dog at the lake and it hadn't been seen for an hour. So I dropped everything and drove the 4 hours to get there. By the time I arrived it was dark and she had already seen bears.

weave: I spent the night driving around hoping that she might make it to a road, but the chances of that were slim because -- the wife lost her while walking her and the wife fell down and the dog took off after some deer -- with the leash attached. I figured the dog would have got caught up in the woods somewhere... :( and then been a sitting duck for whatever was hungry in there.

weave: The next morning at dawn's first light I set off hiking up the mountain to look for her. Finally I heard a dog barking way off in the distance so I ran into that direction but eventually the barking stopped before I got close enough to get a good fix on it.

weave: I couldn't find her, so I turned around to go get help (I couldn't get a cell signal there). As I was leaving and still calling out for her, I started to hear the barking again. This time I got a better fix and head back, this time up the other side of a valley. Then the barking stopped again.

weave: She has a "Tile" on her -- a Bluetooth transceiver, but it only has a range of 100-200 feet. But it's better than nothing so I kept my phone out scanning for it. I finally got a hit, but she still wasn't barking. I feared the worse. I kept walking back and forth watching the signal strength meter. Then suddenly I saw her. The most wonderful sight I ever seen. Indeed she got herself tangled up and spent almost 24 hours stuck there. So that day I ordered a GPS tracker. Now actually in this case it wouldn't help because there was no cell signal in the mountains so it wouldn't be able to send her location, but it's better than nothing and might help next time -- which hopefully there never will be one.

weave: So she apparently would stop barking whenever she would see me off in the distance figuring I guess I could see her... stupid humans...

UncleJesse: Glad it was a happy ending.

BigJay: ^Agreedt

Homer: damn glad you found your baby pup weave.

weave: Thanks. I was scared shitless. If I didn't find her she would have died a long lonely miserable death -- or a short amount of terror -- or both. :(

Fleedle: Wow thats scary shit. I dont get how tiles work- is there a battery in there?

weave: yeah.... it's sealed. it lasts about a year, then you throw it out and buy a new Tile. I have 12 of the things and have them attached to keys, coats, wallets, and my Mifi that I'm always misplacing. It's really nice. They used Bluetooth. It has a limited range but if a lost Tile gets within another Tile user's range it will record the location and notify you. I was thinking of hiding one on an Amtrak train and tracking it around the country but then worried if it was found some idiot might think I was a terrorist tracking train movements.

Riverrat: Did you put one on your wife yet?

weave: No need, her phone tracks her just fine!

Fleedle: Wery interesting. I have a few we ordered around 8 months ago and they just arrived recently, I wonder how much juice they have left.

ITM: Don't you just turn them on when you start to use them? Pull out a little tab or sumthin? Surely they wouldn't have them burning battery during shipment...and don't call you Shirley....yep

weave: They are sealed so they are fairly waterproof. My dog goes swimming with hers on a lot and its fine. I think they are "off" at first because you have to press on it to turn it on when you first get it.

Fleedle: Sveet. I'll put one on the cat

Riverrat: Does the cat move?

Fleedle: Not much. She did leap off the balcony once

Riverrat: Did she leap or roll over and fall off?

Speedy: Or.....was she PUSHED!

snippy: tracker cat/doggie booties Rats! just think about the possibilities! make them satellite so you can track the little bastards everywhere.

BigJay: LOMFL @ Speedy!!! Goodt idea Snips^ Ann ifn you take'em off whenst they come back in the house, they won't track dirt in!

snippy: Rats been kinda quiet lately about his cat booty business. i think he's cutting a fat pig in the ass and laughing all the way to the bank.

BigJay: ^ I ain't seen him on Shark Tank yet.

snippy: Wild thing had a great idea for your cat booties too Rats. LED lights. that would be some fancy prancing!

Riverrat: It would be simpler to just shove the GPS tracker up their ass and wrap some Christmas lights around their neck.

BigJay: ^ Nice! Could even make'em in team colosr fer the upcoming season. Sell the logos separately and you don't needt a licensing agreement!

Fleedle: did weavo really spell his dog's name baylea
