Audible beeper so the hunter/trainer can keep track of the location of the dog if it gets into heavy cover out of eye sight,,or wanders too far away.

The hunter/trainer has a small remote to activate it.

Something you can throw in the trunk of your wife's car if you suspect her of cheating on you, if you have the rest of the kit.

Does the dog get trained to respond to beeps?

No reason you couldn't...

I would never throw my gun dog in the trunk.

It translates a dog's barking into English so the two of you can communicate better in the field.

I believe that is a beeper, dogs can be trained on them just as
a whistle. Have no experience with them. My dad was a great
bird Hunter, he always had at least 3 dogs, English Setters mostly. He had the shock collar set up to use on young dogs
that were ranging to far or running off after other game. He used
it sparingly. When my brother got old enough to hunt, he put
shock collar on brother and gave the controls to the dog.

It is a beeper (quite loud) that lets you know where your dog is when hunting in thick cover - the tone will change when the dog stops moving for a couple of seconds. That way you know that he is on point when you can't actually see him.

I used to put a bell on my bird dog's.
