The invention concerns a system ( 100 ) for monitoring an animal. The system can include a collar ( 110 ) having a transceiver ( 122 ) and a leash ( 112 ) having a transceiver ( 134 ) in which the collar transceiver and the leash transceiver may communicate with one another. When the leash and the collar move out of a communication range of one another, the collar can initiate a tracking procedure to allow the location of an animal wearing the collar to be determined. In one arrangement, the collar can further include a GPS receiver ( 120 ). When the tracking procedure is initiated, the GPS receiver can determine the location of the animal wearing the collar.
