Illumination by Adventure Light* |
Whether
you walk your dogs in the neighborhood or let them out in a securely fenced
yard, using a night light for your Cairn is a great idea! When you’re walking down the street, a light
makes you and your dog more visible, and being visible to drivers – as well as
other people walking their dogs - is always the safest mode of exercise.
In
the yard, there are usually dark corners where your dog may not otherwise be
visible, and those dark corners are often where the critters of prey are
lurking! God forbid, should the worst
possible situation happen – the fence has an unknown weakness that your clever
Cairn finds and exploits in pursuit of a creature – you will have a much better
chance of quickly finding your dog out there in the dark.
A
quick look online and you will find there are many products and styles to
choose from, and the cost is quite reasonable. Some lights blink, some are steady, and some
give you both options. These photos show
the Adventure Light* which some of our CP Volunteers are very happy with. This product gives you a choice of
illumination mode and can dangle or be fixed to the side or top of the harness
by a strap, which is included. Your
options are only limited by the style of harness you use.
Whatever
you do with your dogs, always think “Safety First!” and you will be well ahead
of the game!
