Hi Everyone, Now we have reached the dark nights, we are trying to find a light to slide on to Ozzie's existing collar, not one to hang down, he gets distracted enough as it is without something dangling off his collar haha!! I was just wondering if any one could suggest any?
Re: Light for Collar Not sure I've ever seen one that slides on to the collar but I've got a light up collar for Penny, it's a USB rechargeable one too with two different speed flashy settings or just steady on. It's brilliant. Like one of those posh leuchtie ones but waaaaay cheaper lol
Re: Light for Collar Got this for Bob in lime green the other week... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201040225...49&var=500259131728&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT It's fab! x

I found these but then read mixed reviews about them breaking and falling off and for £15+ I'd rather it not break after the 1st outing http://www.orvis.co.uk/p/led-safety-collar-light/7x0g http://www.muddypaws.co.uk/dog-collars-tags/collar-lights-glow-collars/adventure-light Thanks Loopy Lou, I'd seen these but wasn't sure if it was any good, mainly the price, but I'll look into them too.
Re: Light for Collar I brought mine from pets at home for about £7-£8. It is waterproof, you can change batteries easily and is a reflective collar when not lit. I have used mine for about 5x1 hour walks so far and it has been brilliant. As it goes 3/4 of the way around the neck so even if the collar moves at all, you can still see the light

BUT...it fits the Orvis collars exactly. The reviews mention it falling off harnesses and collars (but which collar?). I'd say if you use Orvis collars, or collars of the same width and thickness, it's a good buy.
Re: Light for Collar We have hunter collar, so perhaps the Orvis isn't great for us, I think I will by one of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/351238625...49&var=620409761482&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT and see how we get on. As tonight was a nightmare, a dark chocolate lab running around in a field as it was getting dark was not a great idea, he just disappeared into the darkness. Normally I always managed to get him back on lead and heading home down the road by the time it gets really dark, but was late walking today and I swear he knew it too, I couldn't see him, and he could just hide from me and laugh
Re: Light for Collar These look fab, if a bit pricey. I had one of the dangly bone ones when Lilly was a pup. We put it on when she went out back in the dark for her night pee/poop so we could see where she was. One day she was up at our tree for ages and I decided to go out and investigate only to discover her sitting at the back door waiting to get in, and said dangly bone flashing light rather chewed but still working on its own : I guess we were lucky she didn't do a Charlie and eat the battery :-\ So....I am in favour of something that can't be chewed. We have a light up collar too. One of the Firefly style - its been pretty good, lasted over a year. We use it as a second collar on top of her tagged one for ease, but it could be used on its own.
Re: Light for Collar We've just ordered some similar to these, flashing ones in red and blue as we have similar problems with Jack and Barney being black we can't see them down the garden at night. And getting different co,ours we know which one is out of sight just in case they try to get through the hedges again
