SpotLit -- dog collar lights

[dr.girlfriend]

I feel like I'm the only one who posts on this board, but what the hell.  :-)  I'll talk to myself. 

I found these little guys on the endcap at Home Depot, and really like them.  They are LED lights that clip onto the dog's collar.  You press the button to either keep the light on or make it flash.  I love it for nighttime walks and letting her play in our yard at night when she goes in the bushes and I have trouble spotting her.  :-)  They were like $7 for a pack of two, one red and one white.

We have pink ones on our pup. Her brother that she stays with has a blue one and the other pup at his house has an white one. They are great for keeping track of the pups at night.

Thanks. I might have to get some. When we take him out at night, I us a flashlight to kind of light the way, and um, find his poop.

Finding him at night will definitely be a bonus. During the fall he blends in during the day, due to his coat. Sometimes I'm looking right at him, but don't realize it.

Our dog has them too and we're a fan, now that he no longer tries to eat them. :-)

That's great- we'll pick some up! We have to use a flashlight at night, Doc is so black that he blends in completely and he's still a puppy that would rather play than pee when he's supposed to. Gus is so white/cream that he practically glows in the dark, but, it would still be nice to be able to see where he is without waving the light around.

Yes, I should clarify that we still use the flashlight for poop-finding, but this lets me see her most of the time so I only have to pull out the flashlight when I know she's actually pooped, so it keeps my hands free more of the time. And I like the extra visibility, just in case a car tries to turn into a driveway or something without seeing that she's a bit ahead of us on her leash.

Ooh, thanks for the info. We had some and they have gotten lost over the past year.

I ended up getting them reflective collars too but more more things to help people see my invisible at night brindle dog the better.

I went looking for them the other day and couldn't find the endcap 2-pack ones, but they had single ones in the "battery center" with other mini flashlights and bike lights and stuff like that.
