Ooh, thanks for this, far more reasonable. You got any experience of them?
And yeah, there's nothing to suggest he will run off, he's great off lead, stays in sight and always comes when calls. BUT, he's 8 months and used to the parks of SE London, he hasn't had a grouse explode from heather underneath him or caught the scent/sight of deer in the woods etc. If there was a decent and not ruinous contingency available I'd like to have it when needed rather than rue not getting it. If anyone has a review of dogtrace I'd love to hear it!
Dogtrace is the more economical GPS option. I find bells mostly useless beyond 50m and even less if hilly. Best is to keep an eye and stop them running off, easier said than done.
