responds to remote control and emits signal

Has anyone invented a dog throw toy which will respond to a signal from a remote control and flash/bleep ? This would be oh so useful when the dog drops the toy in long grass.

       Get your dog his own cellphone.   

       The new dog cellphones come tooth protected and sealed with anti-slobber.   

       While your dog cannot call on these phones, you can call them, and the ringing will help you find the phone / toy.

       i agree with newser, but there is already a light up ball for night time games of fetch.

       The light up ball would not suit the purpose. It lights on impact so would not necessarily light up and bleep when the dog dropped it and probably would not stay lit long enough to find it. The Zap ball does sound good though, might not be quite what I was after, but i might get one anyway. As for newser's comment, the toy would not be worthless to the dog even if it didn't cost much money.

       You might be able to adapt one of those "find a key" gizmos, which respond to a whistle by beeping so you can find them.
