ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for tracking and controlling a hunting dog, including a remote assembly to be carried by the hunting dog and a handset assembly to be carried by a hunter. The remote assembly includes a power source, an electronic controller electrically connected to the power source, a transceiver in electric communication with the electronic controller and the power source and an annunciator electrically connected to the electronic controller. The handset assembly includes an electronic controller, a interface assembly operationally connected to the electronic controller, a transceiver electrically connected to the electronic controller, and a power source electrically connected to the electronic controller and the transceiver. The transceivers are adapted to wirelessly communicate with each other. The remote assembly is adapted to generate a proximity tone within a predetermined distance of the handset assembly and is adapted to receive commands from the handset assembly. The dog is controlled by associating a pleasing tone with the presence of a hunter and automatically generating a pleasing tone when and only when the dog is within a predetermined distance of the hunter.
