Overview Of Glow In The Dark Dog Collars

Dogs that are out in the evening for a walk either with their owner or alone should have a glow in the dark dog collar. The glow in the dark dog collar can protect your pet from being hit by a car if it is luminescent enough to be seen for a long distance. There are several types of glow in the dark dog collars, including reflector, battery operated and luminescent collars.

The best glow in the dark dog collar operates without batteries and has a break away buckle or snaps in case the dog gets caught on a fence or underbrush. The luminescent collar works by being recharged in daylight, lamplight or fluorescent light. The charge lasts for approximately four hours but grows dimmer toward the end of the charge.

To make the collar even easier to see, reflector grommets will catch the headlight of oncoming cars and help to protect your pet from being struck. These collars are also popular for trainers working with guard dogs or tracking dogs in the dark.

Campers will appreciate glow in the dark dog collars when they are in unfamiliar territory. If you are taking your dog for a walk at a campsite or even taking a hike in the evening, being able to see your pet ahead of you insures that he doesnt get lost off of a trail. Matching glow in the dark leashes can also be helpful when hiking in the dusk or dark. When looking for a glow in the dark dog collar, be sure to make sure it glows brightly and is visible, especially if your dog has long hair. If you cant see it, drivers on the road wont be able to either.


Another type of glow in the dark dog collar is the battery-operated type. Electro-luminescent glow wire or EL wire is a new type of wire that allows visibility of the collar at up to a half-mile away. The pulsating EL wire is a dependable product that will not lose its glow unless you forget to replace the batteries. These types of collars operate on two calculator batteries. Another benefit of these types of collars is that they are housed in plastic making them water resistant, easy to clean and easy to maintain.

Laser collars are part of the cutting edge technology in glow in the dark dog collars. These collars operate with a 9-volt battery that lasts approximately 300 hours. The collars are embedded with electro-phospor, which provides a high level of visibility in the dark. This glow collar also has a strobe lighting effect, which makes it even easier to see in the dusk or dark.

If you were afraid that there wasnt a fashionable alternative to the plain glow in the dark dog collar, fear no more. Cute flashing collars featuring designs of dog bones, dots, paw prints, wavy lines and swirling prints are available. These collars operate by battery power and feature a pulsating glow strip on a nylon collar. The collar is easy to clean and maintain. Matching leashes are also available so that both you, and your pet, are visible in the dark.
