Mobile telephone dog training tool and method
First Claim
1. A communication device comprising:
- a first radio communicating wireless signals with a first protocol, the first protocol communicating at a connection interval having periodic transmissions;
a second radio communicating wireless signals with a first protocol;
a processor interfaced with the first radio and the second radio; and
non-transitory memory interfaced with the processor and storing instructions that when executed by the processor;
receives information with wireless signals sent by an external radio to the first radio;
communicates the information with wireless signals sent by the second radio;
increases the connection interval time if the first radio has a predetermined number of connection interval communications that pass without data transfer.

Abstract
A mobile telephone adapts to use as a gundog training tool by interfacing with a dog collar using a wireless communication device, such as a WWAN text or IP interface, a WLAN interface or a radio transceiver that couples to the mobile telephone and is accessible to a training application running on the mobile telephone. The dog collar includes a GPS receiver to provide position information to the mobile telephone and a shock device to provide training stimulus to the dog. A wireless headset interfaces with the mobile telephone to provide audible indications of position to an end user, such as a dog point and tone indicators of directions to the dog. A wireless handset interfaces with the mobile telephone to accept inputs for application to the collar, such as training stimulus.
