LiveStock Guardian Dogs have become an invaluable tool on ranches today, giving your herd the protection they need and giving ranchers an insight into the movement of their dogs. Until recently, a GPS collar was expensive, heavy and had a short battery life. With the advancements in battery and GPS technology, you can now monitor your heard and protect livestock easily right from you phone.
The YabbyGPS is our most popular dog / livestock guardian dog GPS tracker due to its small size and amazing battery life. We can configure the device to match any requirements that you may have, but our most common is 30 minute update intervals. That means, the tracker will report the location of your LGD every 30 minutes 24 hours a day. At that rate, the batteries last about 35 days giving you peace of mind and allowing you collect tracking data on your dogs to protect livestock
In the photos below, you can see how big the YabbyGPS is on both a 100lb dog and also a 50lb dog. Both animals can comfortably wear the tracking device. The YabbyGPS is protected in a plastic enclosure specifically designed for an animal collar.

Our mobile app is for both iPhones and Android phones, and is available for free on the app store. The LoneStar Tracking software is easy to use, fast and secure. We care about your privacy, so we encrypt all of your information and secure it with bank level encryption.
You can be alerted if your animal crosses a fence line or enters an area that you don’t want them to be in. Geofencing is an easy way to draw a perimeter with your computer, then receive an alert if the animal enters that area. You will also be alerted if your YabbyGPS experiences a low battery condition. These alerts can be send out via text message and via email.
