Thinking about trying a GPS collar - worth it?

Hey all! I currently use an AirTag with this collar for my dog and it’s been great for everyday use. Works well where I live since it’s pretty built up and there are plenty of Apple devices around.

That said, I’m visiting my parents who live in a small village ish area for up to a month soon, and I’ve been wondering if I should try out a proper GPS collar while I’m there. I’ve never used one before, are they actually worth the subscription fee? Or are they kind of hit-or-miss?

Would love to hear if anyone’s had good (or not-so-good) experiences with them. Debating whether to invest or just stick with the AirTag setup.
