Are dog safety lights a legal requirement?

In the UK, there is no law mandating the use of lights on dogs at night. So there is no legal requirement for dog owners to put safety lights on collars or harnesses. There are also no laws stating that dogs have to wear any sort of high visibility clothing.  Although it’s not mandatory, using lights on your dog is a highly recommended safety measure at night and in low light conditions, like fog or heavy rain. Increasing your dog’s visibility to other dog walkers, motorists, and pedestrians can help reduce accidents. If you let your dog off leash to enjoy open spaces at night, using a sa ..read more

How slip collars work
Julius-k9
by

Slip collars help dogs learn to walk on a lead without pulling. When a dog pulls on a slip collar, it tightens around the neck, which causes the dog to feel resistance. This resistance is what discourages the dog from pulling. When used correctly, slip collars are a safe and effective way to train dogs. However, they can be dangerous if used irresponsibly or by those not used to canine training. Slip collars are made of a narrow band of robust material (usually cord) and a ring at one end. The collar is slipped over the dog's head, and the lead is attached to the ring. When the dog pulls on th ..read more

Why harnesses slip out of position
Julius-k9
by

If you find your dog’s harness moves around and slides to the side, than this is a sign that the harness is not fitted correctly. A correctly fitted harness should stay in place at all times. It should be snug against the dog’s chest, back, and belly, but not too tight. The rule of thumb is that you should be able to fit two fingers between the harness and the dog’s body. Why harnesses slip out of position If the harness slides out of position it could mean the fitting straps have not been secured correctly. Tight straps will restrict your dog’s movement. If you see your dog walking uncomforta ..read more
