My dog likewise.


Plenty of good people with hunting dogs in that area as a lot of hunting with dogs goes on. Just not 100% sure if they dogs would head for a boy if they saw him.

Don't autistic children like animals and so maybe more likely to show themselves ?

I know my dog would get excited if they found a boy in the bush.

Being non verbal was the real issue, not likely to answer if he heard someone calling.

If you have met 1 child with autism, you have met 1 child with autism, no 2 are the same.

Super

You asked about the range of dog trackers.

Anywhere from a few kms to 20kms

Hills and gullies are a bit of a problem but if you stand on the top of a ridge and even get a weak signal,

you can at least tell a direction.

GPS trackers that use Satelites, you still need to be able to see the Satelite for it to work.

Same as GPS's. they don't all work under tree canopies, hence the use or need to use specialist

searchers who can navigate by a map and a compass.

And the terrain around there is (or can be) hard to navigate.

The one good thing though is that it is bounded on all sides by roads close by so hard to get "lost"

for any length of time by a normal person.
