Do you dogs glow when they walk? We hope you are ready for the darker time of year so you and your dog are seen when you are out and about walking in the dark. In two weeks we will be setting the clocks back, meaning evening walks will be dark. Right now we are glowing on our morning walks.
Our original glowing collars are starting to get tired out. Some don’t light up completely, and some the battery charge doesn’t hold very long. This is their fifth year and rechargeable batteries do wear out over time. We use them for walks as well as when we play in the yard in the dark. Our original set has small light bulb like lights in the collars. We got a couple more that don’t have the bulb look about two years ago as a gift. We like them better. You can see the difference in the photo.
Mom has been bummed because we have never found a purple one. We have all the colors, but no purple. Amazingly, last week Mom was surfing on Amazon, looking for new glow collars for all of us and she found a purple one! It was even on sale! Of course, she ordered purple, pink, orange and green so we all have our colors. It makes it easier to see who is where in the dark, especially if we are out running around in the yard. Getting the right color in a photo in the dark is not easy, so the red one is actually orange.
I’m ecstatic about my new purple collar. Mom had me pose with it so you all could see it. The photo looks more like an x-ray, but I’m super happy.
We can wear the new ones in the rain because they are waterproof, and, of course, they are rechargeable. Each one comes with its own USB charging cable. We love these collars as they can hang fairly loose on our necks and that means they are seen and not covered up by our furs. They are also made for all sizes of dogs. You simply cut them to the length you would like.
Lastly, now with the weather cooling off, I want to remind everyone to not forget your hat when you go out. Being French hounds, we naturally wear berets. Mom finally found us all berets in our colors, so we had to take a family photo. Have a fun and safe weekend! Get outside and enjoy the great outdoors!
We are joining our friends at Living Laughing and Barking in Our Backyard is for their Nature Friday blog hop.
Those collars are so cool and last picture needs to be framed and over your fireplace. It is absolutely fabulous!
Thank you. We are Mom’s French scent hounds. She did order a new cellphone cover with the photo on it 🙂
We have our lights on!! It makes mom crazy when she sees people in the dark without any lights. What are they thinking??? Our favorite photo is the beret photo!!!! We love it. You are a bunch of cute hounds! Have a great day- your friends Chester and Lilly
And if you don’t have lights you will we wearing black, walking a black dog! Makes us nuts too.
I love your glow rings and OMDs you personal colored berets ::::clapping:::: for your shoppers find.
And for you 4 posing so nicely with your berets sitting so straight on your noggins.
Hugs Cecilia
Thank you. Mom has been wanting to take that photo for a while but it is a job to get us all to sit, wear our berets, and look at the camera. One or two dogs is easy, three is not as easy, but four including a puppy is rough but we all did really well.
You look beautiful in your berets! You are styling in matching berets and glow lights! XOXO Sparkle
Mom loves to have all our accessories in our own colors when possible. Fashion hounds is what she calls us.
let the owlympic games begin… we have disco clips what are blue and we look like a police car LOL
Can you boys howl like a siren? Then you could really make some trouble.
I usually don’t walk Levi in the dark (my husband does that), but thankfully where we walk is pretty well lit!
We like them for the walks because the glow is enough that Mom can see our pile if we leave one, but mostly she loves them in the yard so she knows where we are and what we are up to.
Your mom loves you so much and is taking such great care of all of you. Can I join your family?
Maybe as our nanny?
Those are very cool, and I LOVE your color coordination!! We don’t walk after dark (because I’m afraid of running into bears!!) but these could definitely be useful when the dogs are out in the yard at night. Great idea!
We would not want to tangle with bears either! Mom loves them for the yard so she can see where we are and which one of us is where.
Mama is loving the idea of glow collars in the back yard. Since our yard is humungous and Rosy is dark anyway…this would make it a lot easier to keep an eye on her!!
Thanks for the great fall safety tips!
xoxo,
Rosy
They are awesome in the yard and when Sunny is back to having fun, it is amusing to watch the colors dancing around in the dark in the yard 🙂
Fun light show but your photo of the sweet doggies is my favorite ~ Xo
Wishing you good health, laughter and love in your days,

Thank you. Mom has been wanting to get us colored berets for a while now.
How fun. Now you’re easy to find at night. I love the hats. You’re mot adorable.
Have a woof woof day and weekend. Scritches all around and my best to your wonderful mom. ♥
Thank you. Everything is about color at our house!
We love those berets!! Were they on Amazon, too? Our mom should get one of those glow collars for Mia – she gets lost in the backyard since she is a black poodle.
The glow collars are for safety on walks but Mom finds them most useful when we are out in the yard at night. It is fun to watch us racing around too.
Oh no, not the dreaded time change thing! You always look so fancy and fabulous in your lighted collars and your family portrait in your berets is wonderful and should be framed!
Thank you. We love to be colorful!
Yeah! finally purple AND rechargable! But the highlight of tehis post is the last photo of the Fantastic Four in their co-ordinating outfits!
We love our colors!
What very cool lighted collars. With the shorter daylight hours, we’re gonna have to get our lamps our again to safely walk.
It is that time of year!
