More pets die each year as a result of being lost than from all diseases combined.
Thanks to medical advances, we can protect pets from contagious disease, but we haven't had a truly safe and permanent means of protecting them in the event that they are separated from their owners - until now. Take the case of Charlie, a dog who enjoyed traveling with his owners, the Johnson family, to their vacation cottage in the mountains. There, he could explore the trails with them, and swim to his heart's content in the nearby ponds. By the time his family returned to the car, Charlie was hot on the trail of the deer and either couldn't hear or was oblivious to their frantic calls begging him to come back. Soon, Charlie was lost - alone in an unfamiliar world.
