Here's a press release I received that I thought might give someone a story idea. Could make some good fiction! If you specialize in nonfiction, maybe you could check out the site and come up with a great query.

Here's the press release:

A handheld color monitor displays the location and direction of up to three pets in relationship to the holder. RoamEO ™ customers can program their own GPS Fence™ in nearly any shape and size within range. If a pet leaves the programmed fence, RoamEO™ will warn the user and display where their pets are going. RoamEO™ does not use cell towers and works everywhere GPS satellite transmissions’ penetrate.


White Bear Technologies was founded in 2004 to develop hand held GPS solutions to locate pets, people and valuables. The company plans on expanding the RoamEO ™ platform to include many other applications.

'specially if they added some form of remote taser-shocking ability. You know, to train those teens using aversion therapy :D
