2008 Brooks Range Nitelight Collar | Reviewed On: March 25, 2009
Gear Reviews>>Mountain Dogs>>Collars>>Brooks Range Nitelight CollarPRODUCT SUMMARY
By snowNinjas
THE GOOD
The Brooks Range Nightlight Dog Collar is great! The overal collar construction is extremely solid. The fastex buckle is big enough to be easy to handle with gloves on, and the reflective striping is wide enough to be seen in dim light even on a thick-coated Husky, and the red/orange collar helps make it easily visible in broad daylight.
THE BAD
I wish that this collar had an actual light of some sort in addition to the reflective tape. Also, more color choices would be nice!
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
I thought I'd only use this collar occasionally for backcountry trips or during hunting season, but I really do like it a lot more than I thought I would, and it looks so cute on Amos that it's his permanent collar now. It makes me less anxious about letting him off the leash when we go hiking or skiing.
