While a COTS GPS tracking app is appropriate for the human partner in the co-performance, what about the companion animal?
Taking the lead from Craig Taylor, we used a GPS Route Logger Dongle that was small enough to attach to the dog’s collar and that would simply generate GPX files.
This was attached to the dog with a second soft collar and a small bag so that it didn’t dangle in the dog’s way.
Canmore GT-730FL-S GPS data logger [Review]
The Canmore seems to work well. The dongle has a quick waypoint generator in the form of a button – somewhat impractical while the dog is wearing it – although she did manage to activate it once or twice through active movement.
Does require proprietary software to download GPX files (supplied) which only works on a PC.
