PetsCell : I just called to say woof, woof

petscell.jpg

Imagine a phone conversation that goes something like this:

You : Hi Bruno!
Other End : Woof!
You : Just called to let you know I miss you terribly and will be back from work soon..
Other End : Woof Woof Woof!
You : Great! See you soon, be good.
Other End : Woof Woof!

Perplexed? Not to be – that’s probably the kind of conversation you would be having with your pet dog if you own PetsCell, a GPS enabled cellphone designed exclusively for the canine members of the family. Which means you don’t have to be worried about Bruno when he's all by himself, as you can call him and make sure he's alright. And the two-way communication ensures that he doesn’t miss you too much either.

The PetsCell attaches to your dog’s collar and also has a nifty geo-fence feature which will alert you if your dog decides to wander outside his pre-defined enclosure. The PetsCell is waterproof as well, to ensure that you can get through even when Bruno’s decided to take a dip in the pool. It automatically answers your call (only from pre-programmed numbers), so no need to worry about your canine’s gadget-handling abilities.

Simple, huh? Maybe, but the price isn’t so simple. The cellphone is priced at a hefty $499 (plus activation, plus monthly charges.) Look for release date and where to buy information at PetsMobility.
