New Lights for Walking at Night

So my dad walks Teagan in the morning while I'm busy with my daycare kids and then I walk her again in the evening with Ryan.  But since it gets dark so early now, it's usually quite dark when that second walk of the day happens.  We live in the city though, so it's not that dark but the other day we were crossing a street and a car whipped around the corner right in front of Teagan - like less than a foot from her!  It could have been that this driver was just an asshat but just to be safe, I got some new lights for Teagan and I to wear when we walk at night.  Here they are:


I bought them from TitleNine.  I chose pink because that's Teagan's color, but they come in a variety of different colors.  The SpotLit ones were $8 each and the StrobeLight one was $10.


I don't know about Teagan, but I really like them.  The SpotLit kind easily clips onto her collar and the zipper on my coat and they seem very secure.  The StrobeLight one I've been clipping to her harness but I'm a little worried about it falling off and getting lost.  Both kinds have two settings:  constantly on or flashing on/off.  The flashing is a little annoying so we don't use that setting.  They are really bright too!


There's Teagan, ready for her evening walk.

Evening walk... and another sweater to wear!

Teagan:  "Oh no!  Erin put another sweater on me for my evening walkie!  I feel so awkward - does it show?  And now she wants to put the Musher's Secret on my feet too?!?  Why are humans so weird?!"
