<p>ALRUI: Pluses &amp; Minuses</p> <hr /> <div>While I don't appreciate the surprise email about the Whistle being bricked and the subsequent waste of a functional device (I'll bring the Whistle to work &amp; toss it in with other E-waste), the Tractive so far seems to be a decent substitute. We had the Whistle for our old blind &amp; deaf dog who on occasion wandered off the property. When we got a new Australian Shepherd who likes to bolt anytime she's off her cable we re-subscribed to the Whistle. The Tractive doesn't have the licking tracking and other trackers but the Tractive does have a barking tracker which could be interesting. I tested the GPS earlier today and it seems to track the dog a LOT better then the Whistle so that's a plus.</div>
