Advantages Of The Garmin DC 40 Collar

By Judy Sullivan


When it comes to top tracking collars for dogs, you have some excellent selections currently available. Not all are the same and some have better features than others. Here are a few good reasons to check out the Garmin DC 40 collar, before you decide.

If you decide to buy this model, you receive a transmitter that is highly sensitive. Unlike some collars where you have little flexibility with use, you can remove this unit and place it on a number of different collars. This is important if your dog prefers certain collars. The transmitter has a battery that can last as long as 48 hours. Battery life depends on how long you set the unit to update.

The transmitter is powerful and has a range of seven miles or 11.2 kilometers. This range may vary according to your terrain. For example, if the region is hilly or has a lot of trees and other obstructions, this will limit the range of the transmitter significantly. You can set the transmitter to update dog position every five seconds if you like. Of course you also can choose ten, thirty, or an update every two minutes.

These GPS collars can withstand a great deal of hard use and wear. They are specifically designed to be used in all types of weather and climates without difficulty. Made from some of the toughest polyurethane available, they are one of the top choices of hunters. Also, the bright orange color makes them visible from a very long ways off, so your dog can easily be seen by other hunters.

If you are a hunter and not looking for a lot of hassles, the Garmin DC 40 collar may be just what you are looking for. It is very simple to install and use. In fact, you only need to put it on the dog and go. Hunters will have no problem knowing where their dogs are at all times, and if they are on the move or stationary. It is also possible to see how fast the dog is moving and track its traveling distance.

These types of GPS collars are compatible with the Garmin Astro 320 and 220 systems. You enjoy the kind of security you need as each unit cannot be operated without inserting your four digit pin code. This helps you maintain total privacy, and nobody else can track your dog, and know what you are doing. The GPS collars can fit a wide range of neck sizes as they are adjustable from 12 inches (32.5 centimeters) up to 20 inches (59 centimeters).

Out of the box, you receive the wireless transmitting unit with your Garmin DC 40 collar. It comes with an AC powered adapter and the unit can also be charged on the go with the vehicle power cable. You also receive a handy manual to get started quickly.

With so many dogs lost each year, it makes sense to invest in a tracking system. This is good for dogs that sometimes escape or for hunting dogs that travel great distances. The Garmin DC 40 collar has a lot of benefits and is worth looking into.
